title: catena-Poly[[[bis-(1,10-phenanthroline-κN,N')manganese(II)]-μ-2,2'-dithio-dibenzoato-κO,O] methanol hemisolvate monohydrate].
abstract: The title complex, {[Mn(C(14)H(8)O(4)S(2))(C(12)H(8)N(2))(2)]·0.5CH(3)OH·H(2)O}(n), has a one-dimensional chain structure in which the Mn(II) atom is six-coordinated by four N atoms from two 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) ligands and two O atoms from two 2,2'-dithio-dibenzoate (L) ligands. The L ligands adopt a bis-(monodentate) (syn-anti) coordination mode and bridge adjacent Mn(II) centres, generating a chain running along [201]. Adjacent chains are linked into a two-dimensional network, parallel to (10), via inter-chain C-H⋯π and π-π stacking [centroid-centroid distance = 3.477 (1) Å] inter-actions. The structure also contains numerous hydrogen-bonding interactions, which further link the two-dimensional entities into a three-dimensional supramolecular network.
