Abstract: The title compound, [Cd(C₅H₁₀NO₂S₂)₂(C₁₀H₈N₂)], features a trigonal-prismatic coordination geometry for the Cd^II ion, based on an N₂S₄ donor set defined by two chelating dithiocarbamate ligands and a 2,2'-bipyridyl ligand. In the crystal, extensive O-HO hydrogen bonding results in the formation of 12-membered {HO}₆ synthons and one-dimensional supramolecular chains with further O-HS interactions providing additional stability to the linear chain with base vector [01].
