Abstract: The three-dimensional coordination polymer, [Mn₂(C₁₂H₆O₄)₂(C₁₂H₆N₂O₂)(H₂O)]_n, features a water-coordinated Mn^II ion and an N-heterocycle-chelated Mn^II ion, both in six-coordinate octahedral geometries. Of the two rigid dianions, one is bonded to four Mn^II ions, with each of the O atoms being connected to a different metal ion. The other dianion uses one carboxylate group to chelate to one Mn^II ion and its other carboxylate group to bind to two Mn^II ions.
