Abstract

A new mononuclear complex Mn(bbbi)2(H2O)4(ClO4)2·(bbbi)2·(H2O)2 1 (bbbi = 1,4-bis(benzimidazol-1-yl)-2-butene) is synthesized under hydrothermal conditions and characterized by IR spectroscopy, elemental analysis, and single crystal X-ray structural analysis. Crystal data for 1: triclinic, \(P\bar 1\), a = 8.8478(7) Å, b = 15.0550(11) Å, c = 16.4310(12) Å, α = 108.657(7)°, β = 104.044(7)°, Γ = 99.317(7)°, V = 1942.2(3) Å3, Z = 1, final R = 0.0621. Each manganese atom is octahedrally coordinated by four aqua ligands and two nitrogen atoms of two distinct bbbi ligands. The molecule is stabilized by hydrogen bonding and π…π interactions.
