title: Poly[tetra-kis[μ(2)-1,3-bis-(4-pyrid-yl)propane-κN:N']dichloridobis(phenyl-acetato)dimanganese(II)].
abstract: In the title compound, [Mn(2)(C(8)H(7)O(2))(2)Cl(2)(C(13)H(14)N(2))(4)](n), the two Mn(II) atoms lie on inversion centers and are connected by the N-heterocyclic ligands into a wave-like lamellar framework structure. One Mn(II) atom is covalently bonded to two Cl atoms and the other to two benzyl-acetate anions; both Mn atoms show distorted octahedral coordinations.
