catena-Poly[[bis(N,N'-dimethylformamide)cadmium(II)]-μ2-oxalato]
Journal article, 2008

The title compound, [Cd(C2O4)(C3H7NO)2]n, is isostructural with its MnII analogue. The structure comprises zigzag polymeric chains with the oxalate groups situated on inversion centres and the CdII atoms located on twofold rotation axes. The coordination geometry around CdII is distorted octahedral and the intrachain Cd...Cd distance is 5.842(1) Å. C—H...O hydrogen bonds exist between the parallel polymeric chains.
