Abstract top

In the title compound, [Mn2Ni(C17H14Br2N2O2)2(CN)4(H2O)2] or [{Mn(C17H14Br2N2O2)(H2O)}2([mu]-CN)2{Ni(CN)2}], each MnIII atom is chelated by a Schiff base ligand via two N and two O atoms and is additionally coordinated by a water molecule to give a slightly distorted octahedral geometry. Two such MnIII ions are linked by a square-planar Ni(CN)4 unit, which lies on an inversion centre. A two-dimensional network is formed by O-H...O and O-H...N hydrogen bonds.

Comment top

Schiff bases as ligands have been studied for a long time due to their easy synthesis and versatile complexing abilities. They play an important role in the development of coordination chemistry as well as inorganic biochemistry, catalysis, optical materials and so on (Garnovskii et al., 1993; Huang et al., 2002). Considerable attention has been focused on the syntheses and structures of manganese(III) complexes. Manganese complexes with multidentate Schiff base ligands have aroused particular interest because this metal can exhibit several oxidation states and may provide the basis of models for active sites of biological systems. On the other hand, the main attention in optically active Schiff base complexes is concentrated on their catalytic abilities in stereoselective synthesis (Bhadbhade & Srinivas, 1993; Bunce et al., 1998). In this paper, we report the structure of the title compound, (I).

As shown in Fig. 1, each MnIII atom is chelated by a Schiff base ligand via two N and two O atoms and is additionally coordinated by a water molecule to give a slightly distorted octahedral geometry, in which the Schiff base lies in the equatorial plane. Two such MnIII ions are linked by a square-planar Ni(CN)4 unit, which lies on an inversion centre. The cyanido and aqua ligands lie in the axial coordination sites. The Mn—N and Mn—O axial bond lengths are much longer than the equatorial ones. A two-dimensional network is formed by O—H···O and O—H···N hydrogen bonds, as shown in Fig. 2.

Experimental top

A mixture of manganese(III) acetate (1 mmol), N,N'-bis(2-hydroxy-5-bromobenzyl)-1,2-diaminopropane (1 mmol) and dipotassium tetracyanidonickelate(II) (1 mmol) in 20 ml me thanol was refluxed for two hours. The cooled solution was filtered and the filtrate was allowed to evaporate naturally at room temperature. Two day later, brown blocks of (I) were obtained with a yield of 16%. Anal. Calc. for C38H32Br4Mn2N8NiO6: C 38.48, H 2.70, N 9.45%; Found: C 38.42, H 2.64, N 9.38.

Refinement top

All C-bound H atoms were placed in calculated positions with C—H = 0.93 Å and refined as riding with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C). H atoms of H2O were located in a difference density map and were refined with a distance restraint O—H = 0.82 (1) Å and with Uiso(H) = 0.08 Å2.

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.
