Double interpenetrated structure of poly[tetra-[mu]2-cyanido-bis([mu]2-1,2-di-4-pyridylethane)manganese(II)disilver(I)]

Abstract: In the title compound, [Ag2Mn(CN)4(C12H12N2)2], the Mn atom is located on an inversion center and is linked to adjacent Mn atoms by four [mu]-[Ag(CN)2]- units. Each [Ag(CN)2]- unit connects two Mn atoms, defining the edges of a large {Mn4[Ag(CN)2]4} mesh. The MnII atom is further coordinated by two 1,2-di-4-pyridylethane ligands in a trans arrangement to attain an MnN6 octahedral coordination. The AgI atoms are three-coordinate, with two C atoms from CN- and one N atom from a 1,2-di-4-pyridylethane ligand. The doubly interpenetrating three-dimensional framework structure is built by the stacking of {Mn[Ag(CN)2]2} network sheets and 1,2-di-4-pyridylethane bridges from an Mn atom in one network, penetrating through the {Mn4[Ag(CN)2]4} meshes of the adjacent networks, to two Ag atoms in adjacent networks.
