2O,O']manganese(II)The structure of the title compound, [MnCl2(C5H10O2)2], was solved from low-temperature data collected at 100 (2) K. The asymmetric unit contains one half-molecule with the MnII ion located on a twofold axis. A distorted octahedral environment around the Mn atom is formed by two ether and two hydroxyl O atoms of two 2-(hydroxymethyl)tetrahydrofuran ligands, and by two chloride ions. The chelating tetrahydrofuran ligands, which form five-membered rings, are cis oriented. The crystal structure is stabilized by hydrogen bonding between the coordinated OH groups and the chloride ions.
The air- and moisture-sensitive title compound was prepared under dried N2. A mixture of 1.26 g (10 mmol) MnC12 and 1.93 cm3 (20 mmol) tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol (thffoH, Aldrich) in 15 mL of absolute ethanol was refluxed for 50 min, and the resulting precipitate was filtered, washed with ethanol, dried and recrystallized from ethanol.
Carbon bonded hydrogen atoms were included in calculated positions and refined in the riding mode using SHELXTL default parameters. The remaining H atoms were located in a difference map and refined freely.

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

The investigation presented in this work is a part of our research project concerning complexes with O,O'–bifunctional ligands (Jerzykiewicz et al., 1997; Janas et al., 1997; Sobota et al., 1998a; Sobota et al., 1998b; Janas et al., 1999; Sobota et al., 2000a; Sobota et al., 2000b; Utko et al., 2003, Jerzykiewicz et al., 2007a; Jerzykiewicz et al. 2007b). The use of chelating alkoxides can provide new compounds which are potential candidates for both sol-gel and metal-organic chemical vapour (MOCV) conversion of the precursor into the ceramic materials (Hubert-Pfalzgraf, 1998; Bradley, 1989). In this paper we describe the structure of a monomeric manganese(II) alkoxide complex: Mn(thffoH)2Cl2 (thffoH – tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol) (Fig. 1). The MnII atom located at the special position (0, y, 1/4) on the two-fold axes displays a slightly distorted octahedral geometry (Table 1). The thffoH molecules bond to Mn atom as bidentate ligands through O11 hydroxyl group and O10 of ether group close two five-membered rings. The hydroxyl groups are cis arranged, whereas ether oxygen atoms of chelating ligands are situated trans. The coordination sphere of metal ion is completed by the Cl- ions, which are in cis-positions. In contrast to other structures with O,O'–functional ligand MnBr2(MeOH)(Hmepap) (where mepma = N–(2–methoxyethyl)–N–(pyridin–2–ylmethyl)amine) (Wu et al., 2004) and Mn4Cl4(OCH2CH2OCH3)4(EtOH)4 (Jerzykiewicz et al., 2007a) the lengths of Mn–O(ether) and Mn–O(hydroxyl) bonds do not differ significantly. The Mn–Cl bond length of 2.459 (1) Å is similar to corresponding bonds distances in other monomeric octahedral manganese (II) compounds with cis–Cl atoms Mn(2,2'-bpy)2(C1)2 (where 2,2'-bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine) (Lumme & Lindell, 1988), Mn(2,2'-bpy)2(C1)2.SC(NH2)2 (Choudhury et al., 2006), MnCl2(HL)2 (where HL = N–(3–chlorophenyl)pyridine–2–carboxamide) (Yang et al., 2003). The tetrahydrofouran ring adopts an envelope conformation. The whole structure is held together by intermolecular hydrogen bonds of O–H···Cl type (Table 2, Fig. 2).
