title: Crystal structure of catena-poly[[(3-tert-butyl-pyridine-κN)(4-tert-butyl-pyridine-κN)cadmium]-di-μ-thio-cyanato-κ(2) N:S;κ(2) S:N].
abstract: In the crystal structure of the title compound, [Cd(NCS)2(C9H13N)2] n , the Cd(II) cations are coordinated in a slightly distorted octa-hedral geometry by one 3-tert-butyl-pyridine ligand, one 4-tert-butyl-pyridine ligand and two pairs of translationally-equivalent μ-1,3-bridging thio-cyanate ligands, all of which are in general positions. These μ-1,3-bridging thio-cyante anions bridge the Cd(II) cations, forming chains that propagate parallel to the b axis.
