Bis(2-amino-4-methyl-1,3-thiazole-κN3)dichloridocadmium(II)

In the title compound, [CdCl2(C4H6N2S)2], the CdII atom is coordinated by two chlorido ligands and two N atoms of the 2-amino-5-methyl-1,3-thiazole (amtz) ligands in a slightly distorted tetrahedral coordination geometry. Intra- and intermolecular N—H...Cl hydrogen bonding stabilizes the crystal structure. A weak S...Cl interaction [3.533 (2) ] is observed between neighboring molecules.
