Abstract: The crystal structure of the title compound, [Mn(C₂H₈N₂)₃]₂[Sb₂Se₅], consists of discrete [Mn(en)₃]²⁺ complex cations and [Sb₂Se₅]^4- anions. There are two crystallographically independent cations and two crystallographically independent anions in the asymmetric unit. The cations occupy general positions whereas the anions are each located on a twofold axis. Between the Se atoms of the anions and the H atoms of the amino groups, short intermolecular distances are observed, which indicate hydrogen bonding.
