Abstract: The crystal structure of the title compound, [Cd₂(C₃H₂O₄)₂(H₂O)₄]_n, was previously reported by Chung, Hong, Do & Moon [J. Chem. Soc. Chem. Commun. (1995), pp. 2333-2335; J. Chem. Soc. Dalton Trans. (1996), pp. 3363-3369]. We present here a new monoclinic polymorph which has a polymeric structure in which one Cd atom lies on an inversion centre and the other on a crystallographic twofold rotation axis.
