Abstract: In the crystal structure of the title compound {systematic name: diaquabis[1-ethyl-6-fluoro-4-oxo-7-(piperazin-1-yl)-1,4-dihydroquinoline-3-carboxylato]manganese(II) 2,2'-bipyridine solvate tetrahydrate}, [Mn(C₁₆H₁₇FN₃O₃)₂(H₂O)₂]·C₁₀H₈N₂·4H₂O, the pyridone O atom and one carboxylate O atom of the two norfloxacin ligands are bound to the Mn^II ion, which is located on an inversion centre, and occupy equatorial positions, while two aqua O atoms lie in apical positions, resulting in a distorted octahedral geometry. The crystal packing is stabilized by N-HO and O-HO hydrogen-bonding interactions.
