Abstract

The manganese complex [Mn(bim)2(NCO)2] n (1) (bim = 1,2-bis(imidazol-1-yl)ethane) has been synthesized and structurally characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis. It crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c, a = 9.896(3) Å, b = 15.383(4) Å, c = 13.949(4) Å, β = 98.966(5)∘, V = 2097.5(9) Å3, Z = 4. The coordination geometry of Mn(II) atom is distorted octahedral; it is coordinated equatorially by four nitrogen atoms from the imidazole rings of four symmetry-related bim ligands, and axially by two nitrogen atoms from two symmetry-related cyanate anions. The structure is polymeric, with 18-membered spiro-fused rings and each 18-membered ring involving two inversion-related bim molecules.
