In the title compound, [CdI(2)(C(14)H(12)N(2))], the mol-ecule sits on a crystallographic twofold axis. The coordination sphere of the Cd(II) atom is built of two symmetry-equivalent N atoms of one 2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline (dmphen) ligand and two symmetry-equivalent I atoms, thus forming a distorted tetra-hedral geometry. Inversion-related mol-ecules inter-act along the c-axis direction by π-π stacking inter-actions between the phenanthroline ring systems, with centroid-centroid distance ...[more]
