Crystal structure of CdSO4(H2O): a redetermination.

ABSTRACT: The crystal structure of the title compound, cadmium sulfate monohydrate or poly[(μ2-aqua)(μ4-sulfato)-cadmium], was redetermined based on modern CMOS (complementary metal oxide silicon) data. In comparison with the previous study [Bregeault & Herpin (1970 ▸). Bull. Soc. Fr. Mineral. Cristallogr. 93, 37-42], all non-H atoms were refined with anisotropic displacement parameters and the hydrogen-bonding pattern unambiguously established due to location of the hydrogen atoms. In addition, a significant improvement in terms of precision and accuracy was achieved. In the crystal, the Cd(2+) cation is coordinated by four O atoms of four sulfate anions and two O atoms of water mol-ecules, forming a distorted octa-hedral trans-[CdO6] polyhedron. Each sulfate anion bridges four Cd(2+) cations and e
