Abstract: In the title complex, [CdCl₂(C₁₄H₁₃N₃)₂], the Cd^II ion lies on a twofold rotation axis and assumes a distorted octahedral CdN₄Cl₂ coordination geometry. There is a - stacking interaction between the symmetry-related 1,10-phenanthroline ligands with a centroid-centroid distance of 3.5578 (16) Å and a perpendicular distance of 3.445 (su?) Å between the relevant rings.
