title: Poly[[diaqua-bis-(μ(3)-3,5-dicarb-oxy-benzo-ato-κ(3)O(1):O(3):O(5))bis-(μ(3)-5-carb-oxy-ben-zene-1,3-dicarboxyl-ato-κ(3)O(1):O(3):O(5))tetrakis(methylformamide-κO)tri-man-ganese(II)] dimethyl-formamide tetra-solvate].
abstract: In the title complex, {[Mn(3)(C(9)H(4)O(6))(2)(C(9)H(5)O(6))(2)(C(3)H(7)NO)(4)(H(2)O)(2)]·4C(3)H(7)NO}(n), one Mn(II) ion sits on an inversion center, and is six-coordinated by four O atoms from four anions (monoanionic and dianionic) derived from benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylic acid and by two dimethyl-formamide (DMF) mol-ecules in a slightly distorted octa-hedral geometry. The other Mn(II) ion is six-coordinated by four O atoms from four monoanionic and dianionic ligands, one DMF mol-ecule and one water mol-ecule in a distorted octa-hedral geometry. The monoanionic and dianionic ligands bridge the Mn(II) ions, resulting in the formation of a layered structure parallel to (111) in which all of the carboxyl-ate groups of the anionic ligands coordinate the Mn(II) ions in a monodentate manner. Intra- and inter-molecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds are present in the structure.
