Abstract:
The title solvated bimetallic complex, [Cd2Cl4(C13H17N3)2]·C2H5OH, comprises two Cd2+ metal ions linked by a pair of μ2 Cl- ions. The coordination sphere around each Cd2+ ion is completed by three N atoms of a tridentate 8-[2-(di-methyl-amino)-ethyl-amino]quinoline ligand and another chloride ion to form a distorted fac-CdN3Cl3 octa-hedron. The ethanol mol-ecule is both an acceptor of an N-H⋯O and a donor of an O-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds to its adjacent complex unit. In the crystal, weak aromatic π-π stacking is observed.
