title: Crystal structure of bis-(acetato-κO)bis-(pyridine-2-carboxamide oxime-κ(2) N,N')cadmium ethanol disolvate.
abstract: In the title compound, [Cd(CH3COO)2(C6H7N3O)2]·2C2H5OH, the Cd(II) atom, which lies on a twofold rotation axis, is coordinated by two monodentate acetate groups and two N,N'-chelating pyridine-2-carboxamide oxime ligands, leading to a distorted octahedral coordination sphere. The mononuclear complex mol-ecules are assembled into chains along the c-axis direction via N-H⋯O hydrogen-bonding inter-actions. These chains are further assembled by O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds involving the ethanol solvent mol-ecules into a three-dimensional supramolecular structure.
