In the title compound, [Cd(2)I(4)(C(24)H(22)N(4))(2)], the 1,3-bis-[(2-methyl-1H-benzimidazol-1-yl)meth-yl]benzene ligand bridges two CdI(2) units, forming a centrosymmetric dinuclear complex. The Cd(II) atom adopts a distorted tetra-hedral coordination geometry. In the crystal, complex mol-ecules are linked into columns parallel to [101] by π-π stacking inter-actions, with centroid-centroid distances of 3.558 (2) Å. ...[more]
