Abstract
In the title compound, [Cd(HCOO)2(C10H8N2)]n, the CdII ion, located on a position with 2.22 site symmetry, is surrounded by two 4,4′-bipyridine ligands and four formate ligands in a distorted octahedral CdN2O4 coordination. The 4,4′-bipyridine ligands bridge the metal ions, forming one-dimensional chains along different directions, which are further connected by formate ligands into a topologically (1010.124.14)(10)3 three-dimensional network.
