title: Poly[μ(2)-aqua-[μ(2)-1,1'-(butane-1,4-di-yl)diimidazole]bis-(μ(4)-naphthalene-1,4-dicarboxyl-ato)dimanganese(II)].
abstract: In the title compound, [Mn(2)(C(12)H(6)O(4))(2)(C(10)H(14)N(4))(H(2)O)](n) or [Mn(2)(1,4-ndc)(2)(L)(H(2)O)](n), where 1,4-ndc is naphthalene-1,4-dicarboxyl-ate and L is 1,1'-(butane-1,4-di-yl)diimidazole, the coordination polyhedron around each Mn(II) atom is distorted octa-hedral. The water mol-ecule and the L ligand are situated across a twofold rotation axis. The Mn(II) atoms are bridged by 1,4-ndc and L ligands, forming a three-dimensional network. O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds are observed within the network.
