Abstract: In the title complex, [CdI₂(C₆H₇NO)]_n, the Cd^II ion exhibits a trigonal-bipyramidal coordination geometry [Cd-O = 2.272 (4) Å and Cd-I = 2.7054 (7)-2.8049 (8) Å], with iodide anions and 4-methylpyridine N-oxide ligands acting as bridging groups to form a one-dimensional chain structure.
