title: Diaqua-bis-(5-methyl-pyrazine-2-carboxyl-ato-κN,O)cadmium.
abstract: In the title compound, [Cd(C(6)H(5)N(2)O(2))(2)(H(2)O)(2)], the Cd(II) ion is coordinated in a severely distorted octa-hedral geometry. The N atoms are cis to each other, while the water O atoms and ligand O atoms are mutually trans. The crystal structure is stabilized by a network of O-H⋯O, O-H⋯N and C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds and π-π stacking inter-actions [centroid-centroid distances = 3.730 (3) and 3.652 (3) Å] between the 5-methyl-pyrazine-2-carboxyl-ate ligands. The structure is isotypic with the manganese analog.
