Abstract: In the title compound, [Mn(C₈H₄O₄)(C₁₉H₁₂N₄O)₂], the Mn^II atom is six-coordinated by four N atoms from two bidentate 4-(1H-1,3,7,8-tetraazacyclopenta[l]phenanthren-2-yl)phenol (L) ligands and two carboxylate O atoms from a bidentate benzene-1,2-dicarboxylate (BDC) ligand, resulting in a distorted cis-MnO₂N₄ octahedron. The complete molecule is generated by twofold symmetry, with the Mn atom lying on a twofold rotation axis. Aromatic - stacking interactions between L ligands, and N-HO and O-HO hydrogen bonds complete the structure.
