Abstract

In the title compound, [Cd(C(22)H(26)N(4)O)(2)](C(6)H(2)N(3)O(7))(2)·C(3)H(7)NO, the Cd(II) ion is coordinated by four N atoms and two O atoms from two tridentate 1,3-bis-(1-propyl-1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)-2-oxopropane ligands in a distorted octa-hedral coordination environment. There are significant differences in the chemically equivalent Cd-O bond lengths [2.618 (2) Å and 2.561 (2) Å].
