Catena-Poly[[bis-[2-(2,3-dimethyl-anilino)benzoato-κO]cadmium(II)]-di-μ-3-pyridylmethanol-κN:O;κO:N].

ABSTRACT: In the crystal structure of the title compound, [Cd(C(15)H(14)NO(2))(2)(C(6)H(7)NO)(2)](n), the Cd atom displays a distorted octa-hedral geometry, including two pyridine N atoms and two hydroxyl O from four symmetry-related 3-pyridylmethanol (3-pyme) ligands and two carboxylate O atoms from mefenamate [2-(2,3-dimethyl-anilino)benzoate] anions. The Cd atoms are connected via the bridging 3-pyme ligands into chains, that extend in the a-axis direction. The Cd atom is located on a center of inversion, whereas the 3-pyme ligands and the mefenamate anions occupy general positions.
