Abstract
Cadmium metal was oxidized in the presence or N-methylisatin N(4)-cyclohexy lthiosemicarbazone (HMeIs4Chex) in an acetonitrile solution, which produced a complex of the formula [Cd(MeIs4Chex)(2)]. The two MeIs4Chex ligands are at an angle close to 90 degrees from each other, and there is hydrogen bon ding to two adjacent molecules by the anionic ligands remaining NH groups. The complex crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2(1)/c with a = 11. 820(4). b = 11.491(4), c = 27.834(4) Angstrom, beta = 106.82(2)degrees, V = 3618.7(17) Angstrom(3) and Z = 4.
