4-2,5-dicarboxybenzene-1,4-dicarboxylato-
4O1:O2:O4:O5)(
2-2,5-dicarboxybenzene-1,4-dicarboxylato-
2O1:O4)bis(1,10-phenanthroline-
2N,N')dimanganese(II)]Abstract: In the title compound, [Mn2(C10H4O8)2(C12H8N2)2(H2O)2]n, the Mn2+ ion has a slightly distorted octahedral N2O4 coordination geometry being coordinated by one aqua O atom, two N atoms of the chelating 1,10-phenanthroline ligand and three carboxyl O atoms from three 2,5-dicarboxybenzene-1,4-dicarboxylate (H2btec2-) ligands. The H2btec2- anion exhibits two different coordination modes, viz.
2 and
4. Both of the H2btec2- anions are located on special positions (inversion centers). The
4-anion bridges adjacent MnII atoms, forming a chain along the a axis. Adjacent chains are further bridged by
2-anions, resulting in a two-dimensional layered polymer parallel to (011). In the crystal, extensive carboxy-carboxylate O-H
O and water-carboxylate O-H
O interactions lead to the formation of a three-dimensional supramolecular network.
