Abstract

A new 2D cadmium(II) thiocyanato complex, [CdL(NCS)2]n (L = 2-acetylpyridine), has been prepared and characterized by IR spectra and single crystal X-ray diffraction. The Cd atom in the complex is coordinated by one N and one acetyl O atoms of 2-acetylpyridine, and two N atoms and two S atoms from four different end-to-end (μ1,3-) bridging thiocyanate groups. The thiocyanate groups link the [CdL] units to form a 2D sheet structure. The complex shows strong cytotoxic property to carcinoma cells.
