Crystal data

R factor = 0.032; wR factor = 0.087; data-to-parameter ratio = 13.0. In the title complex, [Cd(NO2)2(C17H14N4)], the Cd II ion assumes a distorted monocapped octahedral coordination geometry defined by an N3O4 donor set. The crystal structure is stabilized by – stacking interactions [shortest centroid– centroid distance = 3.5537 (18) Å]. Related literature For related structures, see: Wang et al. (2009); Sun et al.
