Abstract
Two new MnII and FeII complexes with 4′-(4-pyridyl)-2,2′ : 6′,2″-terpyridine (pyterpy), [Mn(pyterpy)(MeOH)2(OAc)](ClO4) (1) and [Fe(pyterpy)2](SCN)2 · MeOH (2) have been synthesized and characterized by CHN elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, and structurally analyzed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The thermal stabilities of these compounds were studied by thermal gravimetric (TG) and differential thermal analyses (DTA). The potentially tetradentate pyterpy ligand is a tridentate donor to both Mn(II) and Fe(II). The non-coordinated pyridyl interacts via O–H ··· N and C–H ··· N hydrogen bonds with adjacent molecules in 1 and 2, respectively, to form inversion symmetric dimers. Compound 1 is further extended into infinite hydrogen bonded chains via pairs of O–H ··· Oacetate hydrogen bonds.
