Bis(2,2'-bipyridyl-κN,N')(nitrato-κO,O')(trifluoro-acetato-κO)cadmium(II).

In the title complex, [Cd(C(2)F(3)O(2))(NO(3))(C(10)H(8)N(2))(2)], the Cd(II) ion is hepta-coordinated by two chelating 2,2'-bipyridyl ligands [Cd⋯N 2.370 (6)-2.416 (6) Å], one carboxyl-ate O atom [Cd⋯O 2.290 (6) Å] from the trifluoro-acetate ligand and two O atoms [Cd⋯O 2.386 (6), 2.633 (6) Å] from a chelating nitrate anion. The trifluoro-methyl fragment is rotationally disordered between two orientations in a 0.640 (7):0.360 (7) ratio. In the crystal, weak inter-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds contribute to the crystal packing stability.
