Abstract

In the title compound, [Mn(NO3)2(C12H8N2)2], the MnII atom lies on a twofold rotation axis, and is six-coordinated in a distorted trans-N4O2 octa­hedral environment by four N atoms from two 1,10-phenanthroline ligands and two O atoms from two nitrate anions. The nitrate anion is disordered about a twofold rotation axis with fixed occupancy factors of 0.5. In the crystal, mol­ecules are linked by weak C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and π–π stacking inter­actions [centroid–centroid distance = 4.088 (5) Å] into a three-dimensional supra­molecular network.
