All reagents were obtained from commercial sources and used without further purification. A mixture of CdSO4.8/3H2O (0.2565 g, 1.0 mmol), 1H-benzimidazole-5,6-dicarboxylate (0.1236 g,0.6 mmol), CH3CN (6 ml) and 4 ml water were added to a 23 ml Teflon-lined stainless container, which was heated to 423 K and held at that temperature for 5 days. After cooling to room temperature in 24 h, colourless crystals were recovered by filtration (yield 49% based on CdSO4.8/3H2O).
The H atoms were localized from a difference Fourier map. Their coordinates were refined independently with O—H distances restrained to 0.85 (2) Å and the H—H = 1.30 (2)Å for the water H atoms. The isotropic temperature parameters of the H atoms were refined with 1.2Ueq of the parent atom. H atoms of the ammonium cation were placed in calculated positions, with N—H = 0.90Å, Uiso(H) = 1.2 Ueq(N). The deepest hole in the final Fourier map is 0.8 Å from Cd2.
The title compound, (NH4)2Cd3(SO4)3(OH)2(H2O)2, (I), formed accidentally under hydrothermal reaction conditions. Our intended target product was to synthesis a coordination compound from 1H-benzimidazole-5,6-dicarboxylate and CdSO4.8/3H2O. The presence of ammonium ions in the finally obtained compound points to an internal redox process that presumably has caused a (partly) reduction of the nitrogen atoms of 1H-benzimidazole-5,6-dicarboxylate or the nitrate anions. (NH4)2Cd3(SO4)3(OH)2(H2O)2 is isotypic with other M2Cd3(SO4)3(OH)2(H2O)2 members (M = K, Cs (Louer & Louer, 1982); M = Rb (Swain & Guru Row, 2006)).
The asymmetric unit of (I) is illustrated in Fig. 1. The crystal structure of (NH4)2Cd3(SO4)3(OH)2(H2O)2 is made up from two different Cd2+ ions (one on a general position (Cd1), one with site symmetry m (Cd2)), two sulfate ions (likewise one on a general position and the other with site symmetry m), two hydroxide groups, one water molecule and one NH4+ cation. Both Cd2+ cations are six-coordinated in an octahedral coordination geometry. Cd2 is coordinated by four sulfate ions and two hydroxide ions, while Cd1 is coordinated by three sulfate ons, two hydroxide anions and one water molecule. There are four types of oxygen atoms in the crystal structure of the title compound. The O3 atom of one SO42- anion is solely bound to the S atom, O8 and O9 represent the oxygen atoms of hydroxide groups shared by three Cd atoms, O10 is the water O atom bound to one Cd atom and all other O atoms represent sulfate O atoms coordinated to only one Cd atom.
As can be seen in Fig. 2, the Cd(1)O6 polyhedra are connected by sharing edges of OH groups. Cd(2)O6 octahedra and SO4 tetrahedra are linked to these dimers via common corners, thus forming a two-dimensional network extending parallel to the bc plane. The NH4+ cations are situated in the voids of the layers. Through formation of N—H···O and O—H···O hydrogen bonds a three-dimensional structure is formed. Since all water and hydroxide groups and most of the sulfate O atoms are involved in hydrogen bonding, the resulting network can be considered as relatively stable (Table 2, Fig. 3).

Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

The title compound, (NH4)2Cd3(SO4)3(OH)2(H2O)2, (I), formed accidentally under hydrothermal reaction conditions. Our intended target product was to synthesis a coordination compound from 1H-benzimidazole-5,6-dicarboxylate and CdSO4.8/3H2O. The presence of ammonium ions in the finally obtained compound points to an internal redox process that presumably has caused a (partly) reduction of the nitrogen atoms of 1H-benzimidazole-5,6-dicarboxylate or the nitrate anions. (NH4)2Cd3(SO4)3(OH)2(H2O)2 is isotypic with other M2Cd3(SO4)3(OH)2(H2O)2 members (M = K, Cs (Louer & Louer, 1982); M = Rb (Swain & Guru Row, 2006)).
The asymmetric unit of (I) is illustrated in Fig. 1. The crystal structure of (NH4)2Cd3(SO4)3(OH)2(H2O)2 is made up from two different Cd2+ ions (one on a general position (Cd1), one with site symmetry m (Cd2)), two sulfate ions (likewise one on a general position and the other with site symmetry m), two hydroxide groups, one water molecule and one NH4+ cation. Both Cd2+ cations are six-coordinated in an octahedral coordination geometry. Cd2 is coordinated by four sulfate ions and two hydroxide ions, while Cd1 is coordinated by three sulfate ons, two hydroxide anions and one water molecule. There are four types of oxygen atoms in the crystal structure of the title compound. The O3 atom of one SO42- anion is solely bound to the S atom, O8 and O9 represent the oxygen atoms of hydroxide groups shared by three Cd atoms, O10 is the water O atom bound to one Cd atom and all other O atoms represent sulfate O atoms coordinated to only one Cd atom.
As can be seen in Fig. 2, the Cd(1)O6 polyhedra are connected by sharing edges of OH groups. Cd(2)O6 octahedra and SO4 tetrahedra are linked to these dimers via common corners, thus forming a two-dimensional network extending parallel to the bc plane. The NH4+ cations are situated in the voids of the layers. Through formation of N—H···O and O—H···O hydrogen bonds a three-dimensional structure is formed. Since all water and hydroxide groups and most of the sulfate O atoms are involved in hydrogen bonding, the resulting network can be considered as relatively stable (Table 2, Fig. 3).
