Description
Summary:In the title complex, [Cd(C6H4N3O3S)2(C12H8N2)2]·2H2O, the Cd2+ cation is located on an inversion center and is coordinated by four N atoms from two symmetry-related 1,10-phenanthroline ligands and two sulfonate O atoms from two benzotriazole-7-sulfonate anions, displaying a distorted CdN4O2 octa­hedral geometry. In the crystal, O—H⋯N, O—H⋯O, N—H⋯O, C—H⋯N and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds occur. The lattice water mol­ecules and sulfonate O atoms as donor or acceptor atoms play important roles in the formation of these inter­actions.
