Abstract
Single crystal X-ray crystal diffraction, IR and TGA-DTA data and searches in the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD) have been used to analyze coordination binding modes of Cd(II) in dicarboxylate complexes with anions of different length. The results, discussed in this paper, show that Cd(II) presents a range of coordination geometries. Six, seven and eight coordination with different degrees of departure from regular polyhedra are observed. The length of the ions influences the availability of donor oxygens and induces bidentate, six or four member chelating rings, and monodentate binding, which produces polymerization of different dimensionality.
