Abstract: In the title centrosymmetric compound, hexakis(-2-acetyl-5-methoxyphenolato)trimanganese(II), [Mn₃(C₉H₆O₃)₆], three Mn^II atoms are linearly linked by deprotonated hydroxyl groups of paeonol anions. One Mn atom is located on an inversion center and is coordinated by six hydroxy O atoms, and the Mn atom located on a general position is coordinated by three hydroxy O and three acetyl O atoms. Within the trinuclear molecule, there is a short MnMn separation of 3.0464 (8) Å.
