catena-Poly[[[bis­(thio­urea-κS)cadmium]-di-μ-thio­cyanato-κ(2) N:S;κ(2) S:N] dihydrate]

The title compound, {[Cd(NCS)(2)(CH(4)N(2)S)(2)]·2H(2)O}(n), forms a one-dimensional chain parallel to the a axis, caused by the presence of the bridging thio­cyanate groups. Two solvent mol­ecules per complex are present in the lattice. The Cd(II) ion is situated on an inversion centre and is coordinated in a distorted octa­hedral fashion by two N and two S atoms from four thio­cyanate ligands and by two S atoms from two thio­urea mol­ecules. Weak O—H⋯S, N—H⋯O and N—H⋯N inter­actions reinforce the structure.
