Dichlorido{(2E)-2-[phen­yl(pyridin-2-yl)methyl­idene]hydrazinecarbo­thio­amide}cadmium(II) methanol monosolvate

In the title compound, [CdCl₂(C₁₃H₁₂N₄S)]·CH₃OH, the coord­ination geometry of the Cd^II ion is slightly distorted square-pyramidal, as indicated by the τ index of 0.36 (8). The S atom, two N atoms from the pyridyl-azomethine moiety and one of the Cl atoms comprise the basal plane, while the other Cl atom occupies the apical position. The hydrazinecarbo­thio­amide moiety adopts an E conformation with respect to the azomethine bond. The solvate mol­ecule in the crystal lattice plays a major role in inter­connecting adjacent mol­ecules by means of O—H...Cl and N—H...O hydrogen-bonding inter­actions. A supra­molecular three-dimensional architecture is sustained in terms of further N—H...Cl and C—H...Cl hydrogen-bonding inter­actions.
