Abstract
A new monomeric manganese(II) complex with 2,2′-bipyridine (bpy), [Mn(bpy)3-] (ClO4)2·0.5(bpy), has been prepared and characterized by X-ray crystallography. The complex crystallizes in the triclinic space group\(P\bar 1\) witha=9.535(2),b=13.194(3),c=14.854(3) Å, α=96.50(3), β=107.26(3), γ=91.19(3)°,V=1770.2(7) Å3, andZ=2. The structure comprises discrete [Mn(bpy)3]2+ cations in which the metal atom is coordinated in a highly distorted octahedral environment by three chelate bpy ligands [Mn−N=2.229(3)–2.289(2) Å]. The solvate bpy molecule and a pair of coordinated bpy ligands each from the adjacent cations are arranged in an off-set fashion, showing significant intermolecular stacking interaction with close interplanar contacts ofca. 3.47 Å.
