Abstract

Abstract{[Mn(mes)(dmb)(H2O)] ⋅ H2O}n (1) and [Mn(mes)(bpy)]n (2); (mes=mesaconato; dmb=5,5’‐dimethyl‐2,2’‐bipyridine; bpy=2,2’‐bipyridine), were obtained by self‐assembly solution reaction at ambient conditions, and structurally characterized by single crystal X‐ray diffraction. 1 crystallizes in an orthorhombic system with a Pbca space group and forms a one‐dimensional (1D) coordination polymer; the six‐coordinated Mn(II) centers display a distorted‐trigonal prismatic configuration. 2 crystallizes in an orthorhombic system with a P21212 space group yielding a two‐dimensional (2D) coordination array, their metal centers having a distorted octahedral geometry. Magnetic susceptibility measurements reveal that 1 is paramagnetic, while 2 shows weak antiferromagnetic coupling.
