title: Catena-poly[[diisothiocyanatocadmium(II)]-bis[mu-1,3-bis(1,2,4-triazol-1-ylmethyl)benzene-kappa2N4:N4']]: a double-chain coordination polymer.
abstract: The coordination geometry of the CdII atom in the title complex, [Cd(NCS)2(C12H12N6)2]n or [Cd(NCS)2(mbtz)2]n, where mbtz is 1,3-bis(1,2,4-triazol-1-ylmethyl)benzene, is a distorted compressed octahedron in which the CdII atom lies on an inversion centre, coordinated by four N atoms from the triazole rings of four mbtz ligands and two N atoms from two monodentate NCS- ligands. The structure is polymeric, with 24-membered spiro-fused rings extending along [100] and with the 24-membered ring containing two inversion-related mbtz molecules.
