“…The Cd atom is in a distorted octahedral geometry, with three N atoms from three bpy ligands, two O atoms from two coordinated water ligands, and one S atom from an mtms ligand. The mtms ligand adopts an S-bonding monodentate coordination mode (Scheme 1, mode II), and the tetrazole ring is on the outside, as also found in our previously reported mercaptotetrazole complexes [Cd(mtz) 2 mode I, IV), coordinated water, and the uncoordinated O atom of the mtms ligand (Fig. 2b ).…”
