title: Dichlorido(2-{[2-(piperazin-4-ium-1-yl)eth-yl]imino-meth-yl}phenolate)cadmium(II).
abstract: In the title compound, [CdCl(2)(C(13)H(19)N(3)O)], the Cd(II) ion is penta-coordinated with the N,N,O-tridentate Schiff base 2-{[2-(piperazin-4-ium-1-yl)eth-yl]imino-meth-yl}phenolate ligand and two Cl atoms in a highly distorted square-pyramidal geometry; the piperazine ring adopts a chair conformation. In the crystal structure, adjacent mol-ecules are linked together via N-H⋯O and N-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds, forming infinite layers parallel to the ab plane. The layers are further connected through C-H⋯Cl inter-actions into a three-dimensional network.
