摘要

One novel cadmium-tartrate compound exhibiting three-dimensional chiral structure, namely {[Cd-3(TTA)(3)(H2O)](H2O)(2)}(n) (1) (H(2)TTA = tartaric acid), was obtained by the reactions of the cadmium salts with corresponding H(2)TTA under hydrothermal conditions and characterized by X-ray single-crystal diffraction and elemental analysis. The crystal belongs to the orthorhombic system, space group P2(1)2(1)2(1) with a = 0.63507(8) nm, b = 1.7116(2) nm, c = 1.8492(2) nm, alpha = beta = gamma = 90 degrees, V = 2.0101(4) nm(3), D-c = 2.717 g cm(-3), Z = 4, F-(000) = 1556, Goof = 1.033, R-1 = 0.0326, wR(2) = 0.0703. The compound 1 shows an interesting three-dimensional network with left helical chains. CCDC: 837585.
