Bis2-amino-6-methylpyrimidin-4(1H)-one-2N3,Odichloridocadmium(II)
Abstract
In the title compound, CdCl2(C5H7N3O)2, the CdII atom is six-coordinated by two heterocyclic N atoms Cd-N = 2.261 (2) and 2.286 (2) A and two O atoms Cd-O = 2.624 (2) and 2.692 (2) A from two bidentate chelate 2-amino-6-methylpyrimidin-4(1H)-one ligands and two chloride ions Cd-Cl = 2.4674 (6) and 2.4893 (7) A. The crystal packing is characterized by an open-framework architecture with the crystal packing stabilized by intermolecular N-HCl and N-HO hydrogen bonds.
