Abstract

A new polymeric manganese(II) complex, [Mn(II)(phen)(ClCH2COO)2]n, was obtained from the reaction of Mn(ClCH2COO)2 with phen and its structure was determined by x-ray crystallography. The complex crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group C2/c with a = 19.706(4), b = 11.381(3), c = 7.482(3) A, β = 94.01(3)°, V = 1674.0(8) A3, and Z = 4. The structure consists of an infinite chain. The manganese atom is located on a twofold axis and presents a distorted octahedral coordination sphere, which consists of the two N atoms of a phen ligand (Mn—N = 2.304(2) A) and four carboxylato ligands. The Mn···Mn distance within the chain is 4.53 A, and the carboxylato bridges present a syn-anti conformation.
