Comment top

In this paper, we report the structure of the title compound, a six-coordinate {bis(1-methylimidazole)}(bpb)manganese(II) (H₂bpb = 1,2-bis(pyridine-2-carboxamido)benzene). To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported structure of a Mn(II) complex containing ligated bpb or its derivatives. The structures of the related [Mn(bpb)(H₂O)Cl] (Lin et al. 2003), [Mn(bpc)(DMF)Cl] (H₂bpc = 1,2-bis(pyridine-2-carboxamido)-4,5-dichlorobenzene) (Liang et al.,2007) and [Mn(bpmb)(OMe)(OCOCH₃)] (H₂bpmb = N,N'-bis(pyridine-2-ylcarbonyl)-4-methoxycarbonylbenzene-1,2-diamine) (Havranek et al., 1999) complexes have been reported previously.

The molecular structure is shown in Fig. 1. The manganese center is six-coordinate, displaying a distorted octahedral geometry. A bpb ligand binds to the manganese through its two deprotonated amide N atoms and two pyridyl N atoms. The two axial positions are occupied by 1-methylimidazole molecules. The Mn—N(pyridyl) distances of 2.2621 (19) Å and 2.2684 (19)Å are longer than the Mn—N(amide) distances at 2.1764 (19) Å and 2.1794 (18) Å. Both of the Mn—N(pyridyl) and Mn—N(amide) distances are significantly longer than those in the related Mn complexes reported previously (Liang et al., 2007; Lin et al., 2003; Havranek et al., 1999). In addition, the C13—C14 and C21—C22 distances of 1.513 (3) Å and 1.526 (3) Å are slightly longer than those of the other Mn complexes mentioned above. Mn—N(1-methylimidazole) distances are 2.2552 (19) Å and 2.280 (2) Å. The axial N—Mn—N linkage is bent with a bond angle of 151.79 (7)°.

Experimental top

To a CH₂Cl₂ suspension (20 ml) of Mn(bpb)Cl (0.2 g, 0.49 mmol) was added excess piperidine (2 ml, 0.02 mol) (Aldrich Chemical Company, used as received) and then purged with nitric oxide (98%; Matheson Gas, purified by passing through KOH pellets and a cold trap (dry ice/acetone)) for 30 min. This resulted in the precipitation of a red-brown intermediate Mn(bpb)(NO)(pip) (ν_NO 1732 cm^-1; KBr pellet) that was isolated by filtration. This intermediate was redissolved in CH₂Cl₂, and excess 1-methylimidazole (0.2 ml, 2.6 mmol) (Aldrich Chemical Company, used as received) was added. The resulting mixture was stirred for 30 min. A brown solid was obtained after removal of the solvent under vacuum. A suitable red plate-shaped crystal was grown by slow evaporation of a CH₂Cl₂ solution of the complex in the presence of excess 1-methylimidazole at room temperature under N₂.

Special details top

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes.
