Cd(CN)3–: a novel mineralomimetic infinite chain-like polycyanopolycadmate anion
Abstract
[SbPh4]2[Cd(CN)3]2 contains a novel mineralomimetic infinite chain-like Cd(CN)3–anion which is topologically similar to the linear single chain SiO32– having a repeat unit after every second tetrahedron in the pyroxenes.
