Bis(μ-5-carboxyl-atotetra-zolido)bis-[aqua-(2,2'-bipyrid-yl)cadmium(II)].

ABSTRACT: In the title dinuclear Cd(II) complex, [Cd(2)(C(2)N(4)O(2))(2)(C(10)H(8)N(2))(2)(H(2)O)(2)], each Cd atom is in a slightly distorted octa-hedral coordination by two N atoms and one O atom of two 1H-tetra-zole-5-carboxyl-ate (TZC) ligands, two N atoms of a 2,2'-bipyridyl ligand and one water O atom. The TZC ligand acts in a tridentate N,O-chelating N-bridging mode to two symmetry-equivalent Cd(II) atoms. The complex reveals mol-ecular C(i) symmetry. Extensive O-H⋯O hydrogen bonding plays an important role in the crystal packing.
