metal-organic compounds
The title compound, bis[tris(1,2-ethanediamine-N,N')cadmium] tetraiodocadmate diiodide, [Cd(C2H8N2)3]2[CdI4]I2, contains the nearly octahedral [Cd(en)3]2+ cation in both enantiomeric forms, the nearly tetrahedral [CdI4]2- anion and I- anions. The geometries of the complex ions are as expected, e.g. d(Cd-N) = 2.348 (5), 2.364 (5), 2.418 (5) Å and d(Cd-I) = 2.7867 (4) Å.
