[mu]-Tetravanadato-bis[bis(2,2'-bipyridine)cadmium(II)]

X.-Z. Sun, B.-Y. Wang and L.-Y. Zhong

Abstract: The molecule of the title compound, [{Cd(bpy)2}2V4O12] (bpy is 2,2'-bipyridine) or [Cd2V4O12(C10H8N2)4], has crystallographic twofold rotation symmetry. A {V4O12} ring links through oxo groups of pairs of adjacent vanadium sites to two {Cd(bpy)2} moieties. The molecules are assembled into layers parallel to the ab plane by aromatic [pi]-[pi] stacking interactions involving the bpy ligands.
