Abstract: In the title compound, [Mn(C₁₀H₉O₂)₂(C₁₃H₁₄N₂)₂], the Mn^II ion lies on a crystallographic inversion center and has a slightly distorted octahedral coordination environment. Weak - stacking interactions, with centroid-centroid distances of 3.862 (2) and 3.887 (5) Å, and significant C-H interactions help to stabilize the crystal structure. The atoms of the unique terminal 4-pyridinepropane group are disordered over two sites, the ratio of refined occpancies being 0.712 (7):0.288 (7).
