<i>catena</i>-Poly[[bis[quinazolin-4(3<i>H</i>)-one-κ<i>N</i><sup>1</sup>]cadmium(II)]-di-μ-chlorido]
Abstract
The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [CdCl(2)(C(8)H(6)N(2)O)(2)](n), consists of one mol-ecule of the 3H-quinazolin-4-one ligand, one Cd(2+) cation, which is located on a twofold axis, and one chlorido ligand in a general position. The latter bridges metal cations, forming a one-dimensional polymer along the b axis. The Cd⋯Cd distance along the chain is 3.7309 (7) Å. The octa-hedral coordination around the metal is completed by two ligands in a trans axial geometry which coordinate through the N atom in 1 position. Moderately strong classical N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds around crystallographic inversion centers cross-link adjacent polymeric chains.
