Abstract

The crystal structure of the title compound, [Mn(C14H13NO2)2(H2O)3](NO3)2, is comprised of two Schiff base 2-meth­oxy-6-(N-phenyl­carboximido­yl)phenol (HL) ligands and three coordinated water mol­ecules. The MnII ion lies on a twofold axis that bis­ects one water O atom. The coordination sphere of the five-coordinate Mn atom is completed by the two monodentate HL ligands and three coordinated water mol­ecules binding through their O atoms, affording a distorted tetra­gonal–pyramidal geometry. In the phenolate ligands, the hy­droxy H atom transfers to the imine N atom. This H atom is also involved in an intra­molecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bond that imposes a nearly planar conformation on each ligand, with dihedral angles of 2.78 (3) and 2.43 (5)° between the aromatic rings of each ligand. In the crystal, mol­ecules are linked by inter­molecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds.
