Aquabis(1,10-phenanthroline)(3-sulfonatobenzoato)cadmium(II) tetrahydrate

J.-M. Chen, L.-G. Zhu and G.-Q. Cai

Abstract: In the title mononuclear complex, [Cd(C₇H₄O₅S)(C₁₂H₈N₂)₂(H₂O)]·4H₂O, the Cd^II atom is coordinated in a capped trigonal-prismatic geometry by four N atoms and three O atoms. The 3-sulfonatobenzoate ligand chelates the Cd^II atom only via the carboxyl group. In the crystal structure, extensive O-HO hydrogen bonds generate a three-dimensional network.
