Abstract
The title compound, [Cd(C14H16N3S)Cl] or [CdLCl] (1), where LH = 2-[bis(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)amino]ethane-1-Thiol, was prepared and structurally characterized. The Cd2+ complex crystallizes in P21/c with a distorted trigonal-bipyramidal metal coordination geometry. Supramolecular interactions in 1 include parallel offset face-To-face interactions between inversion-related pyridyl rings and potential hydrogen bonds with chlorine or sulfur as the acceptor. Additional cooperative pyridyl-pyridyl interactions with roughly 45° tilt angles and centroid-centroid distances of less than 5.5Å likely also contribute to the overall solid-state stability. Hirshfeld surface analysis indicates that HH (51.2%), ClH/HCl (13.9%), CH/HC (12.3%) and SH/HS (11.8%) interactions are dominant in the solid state.
