catena-Poly[[bis[2-chloro-6-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl-κN4)pyridine]cadmium(II)]-di-μ-thiocyanato-κ2N:S;κ2S:N]: a one-dimensional coordination polymer

Abstract

In the crystal structure of the title complex, [Cd(NCS)2(C7H5ClN4)2]n, the CdII atom lies on a crystallographic inversion center and assumes a distorted octahedral geometry. The 2-chloro-6-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)pyridine molecule acts as a terminal ligand. The thiocyanate ligands function as μ1,3-bridging units connecting adjacent CdII atoms with a separation of 5.7525 (11) Å, forming a one-dimensional chain along the a axis.
