Synthesis, Structure and Magnetic Properties of a Novel N‐Benzenesulfonyl‐L‐glutamic Acid‐bridged Manganese(II) Polymer with Double‐Chain Structure

Abstract

AbstractFirst N‐benzenesulfonyl‐L‐glutamic acid‐bridged manganese(II) coordination polymer [Mn(bipy)(bs‐glu)]n (bs‐glu = N‐benzenesulfonyl‐L‐glutamic acid dianion, bipy = 2, 2′‐bipyridine) has been synthesized and characterized structurally and magnetically. It crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group P212121. The γ‐carboxyl group coordinates to the MnII atom in a chelating mode, while the α‐carboxyl group coordinates in a bidentate‐bridging mode. The complex displays a one‐dimensional double‐chain polymer. Magnetic measurements show that there are weak antiferromagnetic interactions between the adjacent MnII ions in the compound.
