Diaquabis(5-carboxy-2-propyl-1H-imidazole-4-carboxylato-κ2N3,O4)cadmiumN,N-dimethylformamide disolvate

In the title complex, [Cd(C8H9N2O4)2(H2O)2]·2C3H7NO, the six-coordinate CdII ion is in a slightly distorted octa­hedral environment, defined by two O atoms from two coordinated water mol­ecules and two carboxyl­ate O atoms and two N atoms from two N,O-bidentate 5-carb­oxy-2-propyl-1H-imidazole-4-carboxyl­ate ligands. In the crystal, complex mol­ecules and dimethyl­formamide solvent mol­ecules are linked by O—H⋯O and N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds into a two-dimensional supra­molecular structure. The propyl groups of the ligands are disordered over two conformations with refined occupancies of 0.680 (7) and 0.320 (7).
