Two-dimensional grid structure of 1 contains cavity, single crystal X-ray analysis has revealed that the 3D framework of the title compound is formed by significant C–H⋯S hydrogen bonds and π–π interactions. The solid-state fluorescent determinations show that the complex exhibits a strong emission band at 403 nm. A novel 3D coordination polymer, [Cd(diec) 2(NCS) 2] n ( 1) (diec = 3,6-diimidazolyl-9-ethylcarbazole) has been prepared by reacting Cd(SCN) 2 with the diec ligand. Single crystal X-ray analysis has revealed that the 3D framework of the title compound is formed by significant C–H⋯S hydrogen bonds and π–π interactions. The solid-state fluorescent determinations show that the complex exhibits a strong emission band at 403 nm.
