[2,5-Bis(2,2'-bipyridyl-6-yl)-3,4-diazahexa-2,4-diene] Dichloridomanganese(II): From a mononuclear compound to a three-dimensional supramolecular framework through C-H?Cl hydrogen bonds and π-π stacking interactions

摘要

The title compound, [MnCl2(C24H20N 6)], has been synthesized and characterized based on the multifunctional ligand 2,5-bis(2,2'-bipyridyl-6-yl)-3,4-diazahexa-2,4-diene (L). The MnII centre is five-coordinate with an approximately square-pyramidal geometry. The L ligand acts as a tridendate chelating ligand. The mononuclear molecules are bridged into a one-dimensional chain by two C-H?Cl hydrogen bonds. These chains are assembled into a two-dimensional layer through π-π stacking interactions between adjacent uncoordinated bipyridyl groups. Furthermore, a three-dimensional supramolecular framework is attained through π-π stacking interactions between adjacent coordinated bipyridyl groups.
