| Abstract: | A novel Mn(Ⅱ)complex Mn2(phen)2(p-MBA)4(H2O)has been hydrothermally synthesized by the reaction of P-methyl benzoic acid(p-MBA)with 1,10-phenanthroline(phen).Crystal data for this complex:monoclinic,space group C2/c,a=2.3328(3),b=1.5549(2),c=1.5557(2)nm,β=121.726(2)°,V=4.7997(11)nm3,Mr=1028.85,Dc=1.424 g/cm3,Z=4,F(000)=2128,μ(MoKa)=0.590mm-1,GOOF=1.060,R=0.0333 and wR=0.0767.In the crystal,each Mn(Ⅱ)ion is coordinated by two nitrogen atoms from one o-phenanthroline molecule.three oxygen atoms from three P-methyl benzoic acids and one oxygen atom from one water molecule,giving a six-coordinate distorted octahedral coordination geometry.Two neighboring Mn(Ⅱ)ions are bridged by two P-methyl benzoic acid groups and one water molecule,and their end positions are respectively coordinated by one 1,10-phenanthroline and one p-methyl benzoic acid molecule,giving a binuclear cage structure,of which the Mn(Ⅱ)…Mn(Ⅱ)distance is 0.3502 nm. |
