Poly[[μ 2-1,4-bis-(4,5-dihydro-1,3-oxazol-2-yl) benzene-κ 2 N:N′]di-μ 2-chloridocadmium]

Abstract

In the title coordination polymer, [CdCl 2(C 12H 12N 2O 2)] n , the Cd II ion, situated on an inversion center, is coordinated by four bridging Cl atoms and two N atoms from two 1,4-bis-(4,5-dihydro-1,3 - oxazol-2-yl)benzene (L) ligands in a distorted octa-hedral geometry. Each L ligand also lies across an inversion center and bridges two Cd II ions, forming infinite two-dimensional recta-ngular layers running parallel to (010).
