title: Bis(acetato-κO,O')[2,6-bis-(1H-pyrazol-3-yl-κN)pyridine-κN]manganese(II).
abstract: In the title complex, [Mn(CH(3)CO(2))(2)(C(11)H(9)N(5))], the Mn(II) atom is coordinated by the pyridine N atom and two pyrazole N atoms from a 2,6-bis-(pyrazol-3-yl)pyridine ligand and four O atoms from two bidentate acetate ligands. The complex mol-ecules are linked by inter-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds into a chain along [010]. π-π inter-actions between the pyridine rings and between the pyrazole rings [centroid-centroid distances = 3.772 (2) and 3.546 (2) Å] connect the chains.
