A terminal Br atom and a bidentate chelating 4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline ligand complete a square-pyramidal geometry for the CdII atom. In the crystal, C¡ªH...Br hydrogen bonds and ¦Ð¨C¦Ð contacts between the pyridine and phenyl rings [centroid¨Ccentroid distances = 3.704 (4) and 3.715 (4) ] lead to a three-dimensional supramolecular structure. %U http://scripts.iucr.org/cgi-bin/paper?S1600536812045928
