Cadmium Coordination Compounds: Classification and Analysis of Crystallographic and Structural Data

“…The cadmium atom binds to four CI atoms and two Ο atoms in a distorted octahedral environment. The octahedra are spanned by the carboxyl group of the alanine molecule (anti-anti configuration) and fuse directly by sharing CI(1)..CI (2) edges to form one dimensional chains that extend along the b axis.…”

“…To this end, many structural determinations of cadmium compounds have been carried out, and there have been some annual reports [1][2][3]. This paper serves to provide a 458 Vol.…”

“…In another polymeric derivative [339], cadmium atoms are linked by PHOCSj" ion bridges forming infinite chains along the c axis. The chains are interlinked by a series of (S 2 COPr) 2 Cdl 2 (S 2 COPr) 2 In another three species [341 -343] halogen atoms and also S-donor ligands serve as bridges between penta-coordinate cadmium centres. In one example [42] iodine and pyridine-N-oxide serve as bridges between penta-and hexa-coordinate centres.…”
