cis-Diaquamalonato(1,10-phenanthroline)manganese(II)

Q.-Z. Zhang and C.-Z. Lu

Abstract: In the title complex, [Mn(C3H2O4)(C12H8N2)(H2O)2], the MnII atom displays a distorted octahedral geometry, being coordinated by two N atoms of a 1,10-phenanthroline ligand, two O atoms from the carboxylate groups of the chelating malonate dianion and two O atoms of cis water molecules. The complex molecules are linked to form a three-dimensional supramolecular array via O-H...O hydrogen bonds and [pi]-[pi] interactions.
