Di-μ-iodido-bis{[hydroxy(methoxy)bis(2-pyridyl)methane-κN,O,N']iodidocadmium(II)}.

In the centrosymmetric dinuclear title compound, [Cd(2)I(4)(C(12)H(12)N(2)O(2))(2)], two μ-I atoms bridge two Cd(II) atoms and each Cd(II) atom is also bonded to a terminal I atom and a hy-droxy-meth-oxy-bis-(2-pyrid-yl)methane ligand, which functions in an N,O,N'-tridentate mode, resulting in a distorted octa-hedral coordination environment. Inter-molecular O-H⋯I hydrogen bonds and π-π stacking inter-actions between the pyridine rings [centroid-centroid distance = 3.790†(2)†à ] are present in the crystal structure.
