(Benzene-1,2-dicarboxylato)bis[4-(1H-1,3,7,8-tetraazacyclopenta[l]phenanthren-2-yl)phenol]manganese(II)

Abstract

In the title compound, [Mn(C8H4O4)(C19H12N4O)2], the MnII atom is six-coordinated by four N atoms from two bidentate 4-(1H-1,3,7,8-tetra­azacyclo­penta­[l]phenanthren-2-yl)phenol (L) ligands and two carboxyl­ate O atoms from a bidentate benzene-1,2-dicarboxyl­ate (BDC) ligand, resulting in a distorted cis-MnO2N4 octa­hedron. The complete mol­ecule is generated by twofold symmetry, with the Mn atom lying on a twofold rotation axis. Aromatic π–π stacking inter­actions between L ligands, and N—H⋯O and O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds complete the structure.
