Abstract
The compound bis(dicyclohexyldithiophosphato)cadmium(II), [Cd {S2P (OC y)(2)}(2)], has been obtained by reacting cadmium(II) perchlorate with the sodium salt of dicyclohexyldithiophosphoric acid in ethanol. Its structure was solved by X-ray diffraction. The structure consists of d imers in which each metal centre is coordinated by a chelating ligand and two bridging ligands, giving a coordination number of 4. The two b ridging ligands and the two cadmium atoms form an eight-membered ring with a twisted chair conformation.
