Bis(2,2′-bipyridyl-κ2N,N′)(nitrato-κ2O,O′)(trifluoroacetato-κO)cadmium(II)

In the title complex, [Cd(C2F3O2)(NO3)(C10H8N2)(2)], the Cd(II) ion is heptacoordinated by two chelating 2,2'-bipyridyl ligands [Cd center dot center dot center dot N 2.370 (6)-2.416 (6) angstrom], one carboxylate O atom [Cd center dot center dot center dot O 2.290 (6) angstrom] from the trifluoroacetate ligand and two O atoms [Cd center dot center dot center dot O 2.386 (6), 2.633 (6) angstrom] from a chelating nitrate anion. The trifluoromethyl fragment is rotationally disordered between two orientations in a 0.640 (7):0.360 (7) ratio. In the crystal, weak intermolecular C-H center dot center dot center dot O hydrogen bonds contribute to the crystal packing stability.
