Abstract: The deprotonated 3-dimethylamino-N-salicylidenepropylamine Schiff base chelates to a Cd atom in the polymeric title compound with a dinuclear building block, [Cd₂(NCS)₂(C₁₂H₁₇N₂O)₂]_n. The O atom of the Schiff base also engages in bridging. The bridging NCS group links adjacent dinuclear entities into a helical chain that runs along the b axis of the monoclinic unit cell.
