Tetraaquabis[4-(dimethylamino)benzoato-O]manganese(II) dihydrate

T. Hökelek and H. Necefoglu

Abstract: The title Mn^II complex, [Mn(C₉H₁₀NO₂)₂(H₂O)₄]·2H₂O, is monomeric and centrosymmetric. It contains two 4-dimethylaminobenzoate ligands, four coordinated and two uncoordinated water molecules, all ligands being monodentate. The four O atoms in the equatorial plane around the Mn atom form a slightly distorted square-planar arrangement, while the distorted octahedral coordination is completed by the two water O atoms in the axial positions. In the crystal structure, intra- and intermolecular O-HO hydrogen bonds link the molecules into chains.
