Abstract
The dinuclear complex, [Cd2(C7H4BrO2)4(C13H14N2)2], lies on a twofold rotation axis crossing midway between the two metal atoms. The CdII cation is seven-coordinated with a geometry that can be considered as distorted pentagonal bipyramidal, with the N atom of the N-heterocyclic units occupying the apical sites and the O atoms of the 4-bromobenzoate units in the equatorial plane. The middle methylene group of the 1,3-bis(4-pyridyl)propane ligands is located outside of the twofold rotation axis and consequently is disordered over two sites around this symmetry element with fixed occupancies factors of 0.5.
