Bis(μ2-N-methyl-N-phenyl-dithio-carbamato)-κ3S,S':S;κ3S:S,S'-bis-[(N-methyl-N-phenyl-dithio-carbamato-κ2S,S')cadmium]: crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis.

The title compound, [Cd2(C8H8NS2)4], is a centrosymmetric dimer with both chelating and μ2-tridentate di-thio-carbamate ligands. The resulting S5 donor set defines a CdII coordination geometry inter-mediate between square-pyramidal and trigonal-bipyramidal, but tending towards the former. The packing features C-H⋯S and C-H⋯π inter-actions, which generate a three-dimensional network. The influence of these inter-actions, along with intra-dimer π-π inter-actions between chelate rings, has been investigated by an analysis of the Hirshfeld surface.
