(Received 20 November 2012; accepted 29 November 2012; online 5 December 2012)

The structure of the title manganese complex, [Mn(NO3)2(C5H5N)2(H2O)2], consists of discrete monomeric entities with Mn2+ ions located on centres of inversion. The metal cation is octahedrally coordinated by a trans-N2O4 donor set with the pyridine N atoms located in the apical positions. Discrete mol­ecules are linked by O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds into one-dimensional supra­molecular infinite chains along the b and c axes.

Comment top

In relation to our previous work on the structural chemistry of transition metal complexes (Shahid et al., 2010) as potential precursors for ceramic oxides of the type MO(M = Cu, Zn, Mn, Ni etc), the title compound was prepared as the unintented product of the recation of Mn(NO3)2.4H2O with potassium O-n-butyl xanthate in acetone and pyridine. The asymmetric unit of the title compound contains one pyridine, one nitrate and one water molecule coordinated with one Mn(II) atom. Fig. 1 shows a perspective view of the monomeric unit with the atomic numbering scheme. The Mn(II) atom is in a octahedral environment surrounded by two nitrate, two water and two pyridines ligands. As illustrated in Fig. 1, the Mn(II) atom is six-coordinated observing octahedral geometry with pyridine ligands located at apical positions. The Mn—O distance of nitrate are in good agreement with those reported in similar MnII complexes (Saphu et al., 2012). In the crystal structure, molecules are assembled into one dimensional supramolecular infinite chains along bc axis through O—H···O intermolecular hydrogen bonds (Table1, Fig. 2).

Experimental top

Mn(NO3)2.4H2O (0.47 g, 0.27 mmol) was added to a stirred solution of potassium O-n-butyl xanthate(1.0 g,0.53 mmol) in acetone (30 ml). The contents were stirred until complete dissolution of the salt to which about 30 ml of pyridine was added and stirred for 1hr. Filtrate was kept under slow evaporation at room temperature to give the title compound as colourless crystals. Yield 60% (0.42 g), m.p. 373 K. Elemental analysis: calculated (found): C 32.18(31.78), H 3.78(3.35), N 15.01(15.35)%.

Refinement top

Water hydrogen atoms were tentatively found in the difference density Fourier map and were refined with an isotropic displacement parameter 1.5 that of the adjacent oxygen atom. The O—H distances were restrained to be 0.84Å within a standard deviation of 0.02 with Uiso(H) =1.5 Ueq(O). All other Hydrogen atoms were placed in calculated positions with C—H distances of 0.95Å for aromatic H atoms with Uiso(H) =1.2 Ueq(C).

Special details top

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes.

Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
