Synthesis, crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of a coordination compound of cadmium nitrate with 2-aminobenzoxazole
A coordination complex of cadmium nitrate [Cd(NO<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub>] with 2-amino-benzaxole (2AB; C<sub>7</sub>H<sub>6</sub>N<sub>2</sub>O), namely, tetra-kis-(2-amino-benzoxazole-κ<i>N</i> <sup>1</sup>)bis-(nitrato-κ<i>O</i>)cadmium(II), [Cd(NO<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub>(2AB)<sub>4</sub>], has been synthesized from ethanol solutions of Cd(NO<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub>·H<sub>2</sub>O and 2AB. The asymmetric unit comprises half a mol-ecule of [Cd(NO<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub>(2AB)<sub>4</sub>], with the Cd<sup>II</sup> atom positioned on a twofold rotation axis. In the completed mol-ecular complex, four 2AB ligands and two nitrate anions each coordinate monodentately to the Cd<sup>II</sup> atom, leading to a distorted octa-hedral coordination environment. The crystal structure of [Cd(NO<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub>(2AB)<sub>4</sub>] exhibits several N-H⋯O inter-actions, resulting in the formation of a layered assembly parallel to (001). Hishfeld surface analysis was used to qu-antify the inter-molecular inter-actions.
