In the title complex, [Cd(CH3COO)2(C4H8N2S)2], the CdII cation is coordinated by three acetate O atoms and two S atoms of Diaz [Diaz = 1,3-diazinane-2-thione = 3,4,5,6-tetrahydropyrimidine-2(1H)-thione]. The CdII coordination is augmented by one considerably longer Cd—O bond of 2.782 (3) Å to a carboxylate O atom. The resulting coordination polyhedron around the CdII cations can be described as a highly distorted octahedron. The Diaz ligand and the acetate anions are linked by N—HO hydrogen-bonding interactions.

The title compound, [Cu6I6(C2H6N2S)6], was obtained from the reaction of copper(I) iodide with N-methylthiourea (Metu) in equimolar amounts in acetonitile. The complex consists of two six-membered trinuclear Cu3S3I3 cores that combine through triply bridging Metu, forming a hexanuclear core which has -3 symmetry. The CuII atom is coordinated by three S atoms of Metu and one iodide ion in a distorted tetrahedral geometry. The crystal structure is stabilized by N—HI hydrogen bonds and cuprophilic interactions [CuCu = 3.0264 (9) Å].
