The MnII atom in the title coordination polymer, [MnCl2(C12H12N6)2]n, lies on a center of inversion in a six-coordinate octa­hedral environment comprising four N-atom donors from four N-heterocyclic ligands and two chloride atoms. Bridging by the ligands results in a layer structure of a 14.79 (5) × 14.79 (5) Å (4,4) rhombic net topology, with the MnII atoms all lying on a plane. The parallel layers stack in an ABCABC… manner through inter­layer C—H⋯N and C—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds.

The design and synthesis of highly-dimensional metal-organic framework (MOF) structures is becoming an increasing popular field of research in view of the formation of fascinating structures and their potentially useful ion-exchange, adsorption, catalytic, fluorescence, and magnetic properties. Triazole-containing ligands, such as 1,4-bis(triazol-1-ylmethyl)benzene, 1,2-bis(1,2,4-triazole-1-yl)ethane, 1,2-bis(1,2,4-triazole-1-yl)hexane and related species, represent another class of N-donor organic linkers for constructing coordination polymers, and these ligands have been proved to be able to produce architectures different from those obtained from pyridyl-based ligands.With two methylene sp3-carbon atoms, the ligand 1,4-bis(triazol-1-ylmethyl)benzene L is highly flexible and can assume variable trans and gauche conformations. It can generate unusual 2-D polyrotaxane networks, 3-D entangled networks and 3-D self-catenating network containing two different types of layers (Li et al., 2005). However, to date, only one manganese hybrid compound [Mn2(H2O)4(L)3][SiMo12O40].4H2O with the flexible L ligands has been reported in the present of molybdate recently (Dong et al., 2009).

Several synthetic methods can be used to obtain new polymeric complexes. In the previous literatures the hydrothermal method has been a promising technique in preparing highly stable, infinite metal–ligand frameworks (Gutschke et al., 1996; Chui et al., 1999; Gerrard et al., 2000). Taking the advantage of bridging ability of L in the chemical design of metal-organic molecular assemblies, under hydrothermal condition, we synthesized a novel 2-D (4,4) square grid layer manganese(II) coordination polymer, poly-[[bis[µ2-1,4-bis(triazol-1-ylmethyl)benzene-bis(chloride)manganese(II)].

Selected bond distances and bond angles are listed in Table 1. Fig. 1 shows the coordination environment of the metal ions in 1. The asymmetric unit of (I) contains one MnII cation, four-half of L ligands and two chloride atoms. The Mn(II) ion, which resides at an inversion center, is octahedrally coordinated by two pairs of equivalent imine nitrogen atoms from L ligands in the equatorial plane (N1, N6i, N6ii, N1iii) and two equivalent terminal chloride ions occupying the axial positions (Cl1 and Cl1iii). Two triazole rings of the ligand rotate along the C—C single bond axis with the dihedral of 52.1°. The benzene groups have different twists relative to their adjacent triazole ring with the dihedral of 70.2° and 71.0°, respectively. The cis N–Mn–N bond angles range from 87.4 (8)° to 92.5 (2)°, and the axial Mn–Cl(chloride) distances (2.5666 (5) Å) are much longer than the equatorial Mn–N(imine) distances (2.251 (3) and 2.268 (3) Å), indicative of the distorted octahedral environment with a slight axial elongated. Each Mn(II) ion is linked by four equivalent L ligands in the trans- conformation to its four neighboring Mn(II) ions, thus affording 2-D (4,4) grid layers parallel to the crystallographic ab plane (Fig. 2). All the Mn(II) ions in each layer are strictly coplanar.

The grid motif has the dimensions of 14.79 (5) Å × 14.79 (5) Å (metal- to-metal distances), and the Mn···Mn···Mn corner angles (84.3 (7)° and 95.6 (3)°) within the motif are close to 90°, suggesting a rhombic geometry. The grid layers are closely stacked in an offset way (Fig. 3), with the cavity of each layer being occupied by the groups from the two neighboring layers, which are generated from the original one by unit translations along the a direction. Due to the interdigitation between neighboring layers. The nearest interlayer Mn···Mn distances are 7.568 (2) and 8.844 (2)Å between the neighboring layers [Mn1···Mn1(x + 1, y, z)] and between the next-nearest neighboring layers [Mn1···Mn1(x, y, z - 1)], respectively, both being much shorter than the intralayer one. Further inspection into the structure revealed that there exist interlayer weak C–H···N and C–H···Cl hydrogen bonds. The uncoordinated L nitrogen atoms and chloride ions of one layer, forms the hydrogen bonds with a triazole C–H groups from different L ligands of the neighboring layer: C(9)–H(9)···N(5) (1 + x,1/2 - y,1/2 + z) and C(11)–H(11)···Cl(1) (x,1/2 - y,1/2 + z). The C—H···N and C—H···Cl distances and the correpsonding angle are, respectively, 3.523 (4) Å and 168.0 (8)° for the former, and 3.635 (2) Å and 154.8 (5)° for the latter. The result also reveals that there is still great potential in the construction of those novel coordination polymers with highly flexible bis-triazole ligands.

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.
