Abstract
The title compound [Mn(O2CMe)(2)(phen)(2)] (phen = 1,10-phenanthroline)1 has been synthesized and structurally determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The crystal is of orthorhombic, space group Pbcn, with a = 12.554(4), b = 10.168(3) c = 17.704(5) angstrom, V= 2259.7(12) angstrom(3), Z = 4, C28H22MnN4O4, M-r= 533.44, D-c= 1.568 g/cm(3), F(000) = 1100, R-int = 0.0242, T = 293(2) K and mu = 0.631 mm(-1). The final R = 0.0687 and wR = 0.1960 for 2046 observed reflections with I > 2 sigma(I). The structure of the complex consists of one Mn(II) core coordinated by two bidentate-bound CH3COO groups and two eta(2)-phen groups forming an eight-coordinate geometrical configuration.
