A one‐dimensional double‐chain coordination polymer: [Mn(C12H13NO6S)(C10H8N2)]n

In the title compound, poly­(2,2′‐bi­pyridine‐κ²N,N′)­manganese(II)]‐μ₃‐N‐tosyl‐l ‐glutamato‐κ⁴O,O′:O′′:O′′′], Mn(tsgluo)(bipy)]_n, where tsgluo is N‐tosyl‐l ‐glutamate (C₁₂H₁₃NO₆S) and bipy is 2,2′‐bi­pyridine (C₁₀H₈N₂), the Mn atoms are octahedrally coordinated by two N atoms of one bipy ligand and by four O atoms of three tsgluo²⁻ anions. The γ‐carboxyl group coordinates to the Mn^II atom in a chelating mode, while the α‐carboxyl group coordinates in a bidentate–bridging mode. The complex displays a one‐dimensional double‐chain structure.
