Abstract Two cadmium halide complexes with 1,2-bis[2-(diphenylphosphinylmethyl)phenoxy]ethane (L 1) and 1,3-bis[2-(diphenylphosphinylmethyl)phenoxy]propane (L), namely, CdBr2 ⋅ L 1 (I) and CdI2 ⋅ L(II), have been synthesized. An analysis of their vibrational spectra is carried out. The structures of I and II are determined by X-ray diffraction. Crystals I are monoclinic, a = 31.562(6) Å, b = 13.548(3) Å, c = 18.733(4) Å, β = 91.28(3)°, space group C2/c, Z = 8, and R = 0.051 for 3776 reflections. Crystals II are triclinic, a = 11.803(2) Å, b = 12.554(3) Å, c = 14.686(3) Å, α = 90.30(3)°, β = 90.29(3)°, γ = 106.08(3)°, space group $$P\bar 1$$ , Z = 2, and R = 0.043 for 4916 reflections. Compounds I and II exhibit a polymeric chain structure. The potentially tetradentate ligands L 1 and L are coordinated to the metal atoms only through two phosphoryl oxygen atoms and fulfill the bidentate bridging function. The environment of the Cd atom is completed to the tetrahedral coordination by two Br atoms in complex I and two I atoms in complex II. The mean distances are as follows: Cd-Br, 2.526(2) Å; Cd-I, 2.695 Å; and Cd-O, 2.243(8) Å in I and 2.210(4) Å in II. The L 1 and L ligands in complexes I and II adopt an S-shaped conformation.
