Crystal structure of trans-di-aqua-bis-(4-cyano-benzoato-κO)bis-(N,N-di-ethyl-nicotinamide-κN)cadmium.

ABSTRACT: The mononuclear title cadmium complex, [Cd(C₁₀H₁₄N₂O)₂(C₈H₄NO₂)₂(H₂O)₂], is centrosymmetric and contains two water mol-ecules, two 4-cyanobenzoate (CB) ligands and two di-ethyl-nicotinamide (DENA) ligands. All the ligands are coordinated to the Cd^II atom in a monodentate mode. The four nearest O atoms around the Cd^II atom form a slightly distorted square-planar arrangement, with the distorted octa-hedral coordination sphere being completed by the two pyridine N atoms of the DENA ligands at distances of 2.3336 (13) Å. The dihedral angle between the carboxyl-ate group and the adjacent benzene ring is 8.75 (16)°, while the benzene and pyridine rings are oriented
