title: Crystal structure of bis-(4-acetyl-pyridine-κN)bis-(ethanol-κO)bis-(thio-cyanato-κN)manganese(II).
abstract: In the crystal structure of the title compound, [Mn(NCS)2(C7H7NO)2(C2H5OH)2], the Mn(II) atom is coordin-ated by two N-bonded thio-cyanate anions, two 4-acetyl-pyridine ligands, and two ethanol mol-ecules within a slightly distorted octa-hedron. The asymmetric unit consits of one manganese cation, located on a centre of inversion, one thio-cyanate anion, one 4-acetyl-pyridine ligand and one ethanol mol-ecule in general positions. The discrete complexes are connected by inter-molecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds between the alcohol OH group and the carbonyl O atom into chains parallel to [011].
