Tetrakis(1-allyl-1H-imidazole-N³)bis(thiocyanato-N)manganese(II)

J. Zhao and Y.-L. Jin

Abstract: The structure of the title compound, [Mn(NCS)₂(C₆H₈N₂)₄], consists of isolated molecules of [Mn(NCS)₂(Aim)₄] (Aim = 1-allylimidazole), which contain a compressed octahedral MnN₆ chromophore (site symmetry $\overline1$ ). The NCS^- anions are trans and four N atoms from the Aim ligands define the equatorial plane. The mean Mn-N(Aim) and Mn-N(NCS) distances are 2.270 and 2.229 Å, respectively. Weak C-HN interactions contribute to the crystal packing stability.
