Abstract
The metal atom in the anion of the title salt, (C6H14N2)[CdBr4]·H2O, shows a slightly distorted tetrahedral coordination. The water molecule is involved in three hydrogen bonds, viz. one N—H⋯O and two O—H⋯Br, and an N—H⋯Br interaction consolidates the three-dimensional network.

Experimental
Triethylenediammonium dibromide was prepared from the reaction of triethylenediamine (1 g, 1.68 mmol) with bromine (1:2) in the presence of excess hydrobromic acid. To this was added cadmium chloride hemipentahydrate (0.38 g, 1.68 mmol) in ethanol (50 ml). The mixture was heated for an hour. The filtered solution when allow to evaporate slowly yielded colorless crystals.
Refinement
C- and N-bound H atoms were placed at calculated positions (C–H 0.97Å and N–H 0.86 Å) and were treated as riding on their parent atoms with U(H) set to 1.2Ueq(C, N). The water-bound H atoms were placed in chemically sensible positions on the basis of hydrogen bonding interactions but were not refined.
The final difference Fourier map had a peak 0.2 Å from Cd1 and a hole 0.4 Å from Br4.
