Abstract

In the crystal structure of the title compound, [Cd(C5H3O3)2(C10H8N2)]n, which was synthesized from the reaction of Cd(ClO4)2·6H2O, furan‐2‐carboxylic acid and 4,4′‐bipyridine in methanol–water, the Cd atom is octahedrally coordinated by two N atoms of two bipyridine ligands and four O atoms of four furan‐2‐carboxylate ligands. The carboxylate group coordinates in a bridging mode; the Cd atom and 4,4′‐bipyridine ligand lie on a crystallographic twofold rotation axis. The compound exhibits a layer structure arising from the bonding modes of the furan‐2‐carboxylate anion and the 4,4′‐bipyridine heterocycle.
