Abstract: The crystal structure of the title compound, [Mn(ClCH₂COO)(phen)₂(H₂O)]ClO₄ (phen is 1,10-phenanthroline, C₁₂H₈N₂), contains monomeric [Mn(ClCH₂COO)(phen)₂(H₂O)]⁺ cations and perchlorate anions. The manganese ion is coordinated by two chelating phen ligands [Mn-N 2.243  (3)-2.375  (4)  Å], one water molecule [Mn-O 2.182  (3)  Å] and a chloroacetate ligand [Mn-O 2.119  (3)  Å] in a distorted octahedral geometry. Consolidation of the crystal structure is achieved by O-HO hydrogen-bonding interactions between the coordinated water molecules and the uncoordinated O atom of the chloroacetate ligand.
