Bis[μ-4-(methyl­amino)­benzoato]-κ(3) O,O′:O;κ(3) O:O,O′-bis­{aqua­[4-(methyl­amino)­benzoato-κ(2) O,O′](nicotinamide-κN)cadmium(II)}

In the dinuclear centrosymmetric Cd(II) compound, [Cd(2)(C(8)H(8)NO(2))(4)(C(6)H(6)N(2)O)(2)(H(2)O)(2)], the metal atom is chelated by two carboxyl­ate groups from 4-(methyl­amino)­benzoate (PMAB) anions, and coordinated by one nicotinamide and one water mol­ecule; a carboxyl­ate O atom from the adjacent PMAB anion bridges to the Cd atom, completing the irregular seven-coordination geometry. In the crystal, inter­molecular O—H⋯O, N—H⋯O and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the mol­ecules into a three-dimensional network. π–π contacts between the pyridine rings [centroid–centroid distance = 3.965 (1) Å] may further stabilize the structure. A weak C—H⋯π inter­action also occurs.
