Abstract: The title hydrated 2,2'-bipyridine-6,6'-dicarboxylate-cadmium(II) complex, {[Cd(C₁₂H₂N₂O₄)(H₂O)₂]·2H₂O}_n, crystallizes with eight oxygen-bridged monomer units in the unit cell. The divalent cadmium ion is seven-coordinate, and the coordination polyhedron can best be described as slightly distorted pentagonal-bipyramidal.
