The title structures, [M(C6H12NOS2)2(C10H8N2)]·0.5C10H8N2, for M = Zn, (I), and Cd, (II), feature terminally bound 4,4′-bipyridyl ligands and non-coordinating 4,4′-bi­pyridyl mol­ecules, with the latter disposed about a centre of inversion. The coordination geometry about the metal atom is defined b...
