Doubly Interpenetrating Three-Dimensional Framework Structure of trans-[Cd(dppn)₂{Ag(CN)₂}₂]_n [dppn = 1,3-Di(4-pyridyl)propane]

In the title compound, poly[bis­[μ-1,3-di(4-pyridyl)propane-N:N']cadmium(II)-bis-μ-[dicyanosilver(I)-N:N']], [Cd(C₁₃H₁₄N₂)₂{Ag(CN)₂}₂]_n, the doubly interpenetrating three-dimensional framework structure is built by the stacking of considerably puckered two-dimensional [Cd{Ag(CN)₂}₂]_n networks and the 1,3-di(4-pyridyl)propane bridges from a Cd atom in one network, penetrating through the rhombus meshes of the adjacent networks, to two Ag atoms in the second next networks.
