Synthesis, structure and magnetism of a novel carboxylate bridged manganese(II) sheet structure containing the first unsupported aqua bridge.
The structural characterisation of a 2D sheet complex [[Mn2(Hetheidi)2(mu-H2O)(H2O)].3H2O]n 1 [Hetheidi =DL-N-(1-hydroxymethylpropyl)iminodiacetic acid] assembled from the tetradentate ligand Hetheidi and MnCl2 reveals the presence of rare unsupported mu-aqua bridges and novel hydrogen-bonded water channels, which bind the sheets together.
