Architecture of a new selenocyanato bridged one-dimensional polymeric complex of cadmium(II): synthesis, crystal structure and spectroscopic studies

One new one-dimensional polymeric complex [Cd(C5H6N2)2(SeCN)2] n (1) has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses, spectroscopic studies and single crystal X-ray crystallography. Crystal structure shows the one-dimensional chain is propagated through doubly bridging selenocyanate and 4-aminopyridine acts as terminal ligand. The complex was characterized by fluorescence and NMR spectral studies and the results are consistent with the crystal structure.
