catena-Polydipyridine­cadmium(II)-μ-5-amino-246-triiodo­isophthalato

摘要

The hydro­thermal reaction of cadmium(II) nitrate with 5-amino-2,4,6-triiodo­isophthalic acid and pyridine in DMF solution leads to the formation of the title compound, [Cd(C8H2I3NO4)(C5H5N)2]n. The structure contains a four-coordinate Cd²⁺ ion in a distorted tetra­hedral geometry, which lies on a crystallographic twofold rotation axis. The Cd²⁺ ion is bonded to two N atoms from two pyridine ligands and two carboxyl­ate O atoms from two 5-amino-2,4,6-triiodo­isophthalate anions. The Cd—O distances are 2.429 (5) and 2.305 (5) Å and the Cd—N distance is 2.236 (8) Å. The two carboxyl­ate groups of individual 5-amino-2,4,6-triiodo­isophthalate anions act as a bridge to the Cd²⁺ atoms. leading to a chain structure along the c axis.
