title: Bis{2-[4-(methyl-sulfan-yl)phen-yl]-1H-benzimidazol-3-ium} tetra-bromido-cadmate(II) ethanol monosolvate.
abstract: In the anion of the title compound, (C(14)H(13)N(2)S)(2)[CdBr(4)]·C(2)H(5)OH, the Cd(II) atom is in a distorted tetra-hedral environment and one of the Br atoms is disordered over three sites with site-occupancy factors of 0.828 (5), 0.106 (3) and 0.068 (4). In the crystal, inter-molecular N-H⋯O, C-H⋯O and N-H⋯Br inter-actions result in a two-dimensional polymeric network extending parallel to (010).
