Crystal structure of catena-poly[N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylguanidinium [(chloridocadmate)-di-μ-chlorido]]

In the structure of the title salt, {(C5H14N3)[CdCl3]}n, the CdII atom of the complex anion is five-coordinated by one terminal and four bridging Cl atoms. The corresponding coordination polyhedron is a distorted trigonal bipyramid, with Cd—Cl distances in the range 2.4829 (4)–2.6402 (4) Å. The bipyramids are condensed into a polyanionic zigzag chain extending parallel to [101]. The tetramethylguanidinium cations are situated between the polyanionic chains and are linked to them through N—H...Cl hydrogen bonds, forming a layered network parallel to (010).
