Abstract: The title compound, (C₄H₁₂N₂)₂[Mn₂Cl₆(H₂O)₄]Cl₂, consists of two piperazinium cations, two chloride anions and a dimanganese complex anion, which lies on a center of symmetry. Each Mn^II atom is located in a distorted octahedral environment. The cations and the anions are held together by O-HCl and N-HCl hydrogen bonds. The structure features the formation of inorganic and organic ionic layers, which interpenetrate each other and which are linked by hydrogen bonds.
