Abstract

The co-crystal 1:2 adduct [Cdphen3](BF4)2-2CNA (1) (phen = phenanthroline-N , N and CNA = 4-chloro-2-nitro-benzenamine) has been prepared by crystallization of bis (tetrafluoroborate)tri-s(phenanthroline)cadmium(II), [Cdphen3](BF4)2, in the presence of 4-chloro-2-nitrobenzenamine. Single crystal X-ray analysis revealed that the cadmium(II) ion exhibits a distorted octahedral geometry with Cd-N bond distances of 2.337(3)-2.374(3)Å. The organic guest molecules are packed with the plane of the molecules parallel to the phenanthroline ligands. Both intra- and intermolecular hydrogen bonding is important in the complex.
