Two new cadmium(II) azido complexes, [Cd(2,2'-bipy)(N3)2]n (1) and [Cd(2-acpy)(N3)2]n (2) (2,2'-bipy = 2,2'-bipyridyl and 2-acpy = 2-acetylpyridine), have been synthesized and structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods. The coordination environment of the central cadmium atom is distorted octahedral (MN6) in 1 and (MN5O) in 2, with one-dimensional chains formed through Cd2N2 units and alternatively chelating N,N'-bipyridyl or N,O-2-acetylpyridine groups. The central Cd(II) ion is coordinated to two nitrogen atoms of a chelating bipyridyl group or one nitrogen atom and one acetyl oxygen of 2-acetylpyridine and four nitrogen atoms of four different end-on bridging (μ1,1-N3) groups. Chains in the c direction in 1 are stabilized in b direction by π-π interactions involving the aromatic rings of bipyridyl ligands. IR and NMR spectra of the two complexes are reported.
