Abstract
The title compound, [CdCl2(C12H8N2)2]·0.5H2O, crystallizes with two independent complex molecules and one water molecule in the asymmetric unit. The Cd atoms in both independent complexes display a distorted octahedral coordination geometry formed by four N atoms from two phenanthroline ligands and two Cl atoms. In the crystal structure, π–π stacking interactions link complexes in two symmetry-independent ladders parallel to the c axis. Intermolecular O—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds stabilize the crystal packing.
