Dichloridobis{2-[(triphenylmethyl)amino]pyridine-N}cadmium(II)

G.-N. Zhang

Abstract: In the molecule of the title compound, [CdCl₂(C₂₄H₂₀N₂)₂], the Cd^II centre has a distorted tetrahedral coordination geometry defined by two chloride ions and two pyridine N atoms of the monodentate 2-[(triphenylmethyl)amino]pyridine ligands. Weak intramolecular N-HCl hydrogen bonds help to establish the three-dimensional architecture.
