Abstract
The complex molecule of the title compound, [Mn3(C7H5O2)6(C10H8N2)2]·H2O, contains a linear array of divalent manganese ions. The central MnII atom, which is located on a crystallographic inversion center, is coordinated octahedrally by six benzoate O atoms. The two terminal MnII ions are six-coordinated by four benzoate O atoms and two N atoms of 2,2′-bipyridyl. The central MnII atom and the terminal MnII ions are bridged by four benzoate ligands in a bidentate fashion, whereas the other two carboxylate ligands form bridges through one O atom only and chelate the terminal MnII atom. The molecules pack together via van der Waals attractions and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds.
