Abstract: | Three aza‐aromatic base adducts of cadmium(II) furoyltrifluoroacetonate, Cd(4,4′‐bpy)(ftfa)2]n ( 1 ), Cd(2,2′‐bpy)(ftfa)2] ( 2 ) and Cd(dmp)(ftfa)2] ( 3 ) (“4,4′‐bpy”, “2,2′‐bpy”, “dmp” and “ftfa” are the abbreviations of 4,4′‐bipyridine, 2,2′‐bipyridine, 2,9‐dimethyl‐1,10‐phenanthroline and furoyltrifluoroacetonate, respectively) have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis and IR, 1H NMR and 13C NMR spectroscopy and studied by thermal as well as X‐ray crystallography. The single‐crystal structure of these complexes shows that the coordination number of the CdII ions are six with two N‐donor atoms from aza‐aromatic base ligands and four O‐donors from two the furoyltrifluoroacetonates. The supramolecular features in these complexes are guided/controlled by weak directional intermolecular interactions. |
