Abstract
A seven-coordinate manganese(II) complex with the tripod tetradentate ligand tris(N-methylbenzimidazol-2-ylmethyl)amine (Mentb), [Mn(Mentb)(salicylate)(DMF)](ClO4) ⋅ (DMF), was synthesized and characterized by elemental, electrical conductivity, infrared, and UV-Vis spectral measurements. The crystal structure of the complex has been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. MnII is bonded to a Mentb, a salicylate and dimethylformamide through four nitrogens and three oxygens, resulting in seven-coordination. Cyclic voltammograms of the complex indicate a quasi-reversible Mn3+/Mn2+ couple. The X-band electron paramagnetic resonance spectrum exhibits a six-line manganese hyperfine pattern with g = 2, A = 93, confirming that the material is high-spin Mn(II).
