Bis(μ-4-bromo­benzoato)-κ(3) O,O′:O′;O:O,O′-bis­[μ-1,3-bis­(pyridin-4-yl)propane-κ(2) N:N′]bis­[(4-bromo­benzoato-κ(2) O,O′)cadmium]

The dinuclear complex, [Cd(2)(C(7)H(4)BrO(2))(4)(C(13)H(14)N(2))(2)], lies on a twofold rotation axis crossing midway between the two metal atoms. The Cd(II) cation is seven-coordinated with a geometry that can be considered as distorted penta­gonal bipyramidal, with the N atom of the N-heterocyclic units occupying the apical sites and the O atoms of the 4-bromo­benzoate units in the equatorial plane. The middle methyl­ene group of the 1,3-bis­(4-pyrid­yl)propane ligands is located outside of the twofold rotation axis and consequently is disordered over two sites around this symmetry element with fixed occupancies factors of 0.5.
