Abstract

The crystal structure of ethylenediaminecadmium(II) tetracyanocadmate(II)-benzene(1/2),I, has been redetermined based on 1632 reflections collected anew for the crystal coated with epoxy resin, with a final conventionalR=0.038;I crystallizes in space groupP4222, witha=b=8.265(1) andc=15.512(3) Å, andZ=2. Ethylenediaminecadmium(II) tetracyanocadmate(II),II, is concluded to be identical with the residual metal complex host ofI, remaining after the liberation of the guest benzene molecules;II crystallizes from an aqueous solution containing bis- or tris-ethylenediaminecadmium(II) tetracyanocadmate(II) in space groupI41/acd, witha=b=14.366(1) andc=23.771(4) Å, andZ=16; refinement led to a conventionalR=0.043 for 1181 reflections. The bridging ethylenediamine ligand inI turns to a chelating one inII; dissociation and recombination should occur in the coordination sphere of the six-coordinate cadmium atom, whenII is derived fromI by the liberation of the guest molecules.
