title: Octa-kis(3-methyl-anilinium) hexa-chlorido-cadmate tetra-chloride.
abstract: The asymmetric unit of the title compound, (C(7)H(10)N)(8)[CdCl(6)]Cl(4), contains four 3-methyl-anilinium cations, two chloride anions and half an octa-hedral hexa-chloridocadmate(II) anion, which lies on an inversion centre. In the crystal, numerous N-H⋯Cl and bifurcated N-H⋯(Cl,Cl) hydrogen bonds link the components.
