Abstract

The reaction of benzene-1,3,5-triacetic acid (H3bta) with [Mn(salen)]ClO4·2H2O yields [Mn(salen)H2bta]·0.5H2O (1) [H2salen = N,N′-bis(salicylideneaminato)ethylene]. Complex 1 was characterized by X-ray crystal structure determination, elemental analysis, FT-IR and ES-MS spectroscopic methods. The X-ray crystallographic study reveals that the complex has a one-dimensional chain structure, and self-organizes to a three-dimensional network by O–H···O hydrogen bonds between the oxygen atom of carboxyl groups without deprotonation and the carbonyl oxygen atom of the bta ligand, and by C–H···O hydrogen bonds between the carbon atom of the salen group and the carboxyl oxygen atom of the bta ligand as well as the salen unit. In addition, 1 was studied by cyclic voltammetry.
