A new Mn^II coordination polymer with a double-chain structure

G.-B. Che and C.-B. Liu

Abstract: In the title compound, poly[[(2-phenyl-1H-1,3,7,8,-tetraazacyclopenta[l]phenanthrene)manganese(II)]--benzene-1,3-dicarboxylato], [Mn(C₈H₄O₄)(C₁₉H₁₂N₄)]_n, the Mn^II atom is hexacoordinated by two N atoms from the phenanthrene ligand, and four O atoms from three different benzene-1,3-dicarboxylate (m-BDC) ligands. The Mn^II atoms are bridged by the m-BDC ligands, forming a double-chain structure. Moreover, neighbouring double chains are in contact through - interactions, generating a two-dimensional supramolecular structure.
