Abstract: The synthesis, structural characterization and thermal behavior of a novel one-dimensional manganese(Ⅱ) complex of formula [Mn(1,5-nds)(Him)4]n [1,5-nds=naphthalene-1,5-disulfonate, Him=imidazole] is reported. The complex crystallizes in the triclinic system, space group P1, with a=0.835 42(13) nm, b=0.983 45(18) nm, c=0.987 42(19) nm, α=60.523 0(10)°, β=97.748(2)°, γ=87.189(2)° and Z=2. The 1,5-nds ligand assumes the μ2 coordination mode and interlinks Mn(Ⅱ) ions into infinite one-dimensional chain structure along [111] direction, with the adjacent Mn…Mn distance being 1.144 99(12) nm. The chains are assembled into a three-dimensional supramolecular architecture via hydrogen bonds and C-H…π interactions. IR spectra and thermal analysis data are in agreement with the crystal structure. CCDC: 773063. |
