Abstract

In the title compound, [Cd2(C12H6O4)2(C10H14N4)(H2O)]n, the coordination polyhedron around each CdII ion is a distorted CdNO5 octahedron. The water O atom has site symmetry 2 and the complete 1,1′-(butane-1,4-diyl)diimidazole (L) ligand is generated by inversion. The naphthalene-1,4-dicarboxylate and L ligands bridge the metal centres, forming a three-dimensional framework, which is consolidated by O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds.
