In the title complex, {[Mn(C4O4)(C10H8N2)(H2O)]·H2O}n, each MnII ion has a distorted octahedral coordination formed by two N atoms of a 2,2′-bipyridine ligand, three carboxyl O atoms of three different acetylenedicarboxylate ligands and one coordinated water molecule. The acetylenedicarboxylate ligands act in a tridentate mode connecting adjacent MnII ions and constructing a two-dimensional structure which can be regarded as an unusual plywood-like stacked network.

In the title complex, [Mn(SO4)(C3H7NO)(H2O)2]n, each MnII ion has a distorted octahedral geometry formed by three O atoms of three different sulfate groups, one O atom of a dimethylformamide ligand and two water molecules. The sulfate groups act as tridentate bridging ligands connecting the MnII ions into a two-dimensional layer structure which can be regraded as a 4.82 network.
metal-organic compounds
The CdII centre in the title complex, [Cd(C14H13N3O2)2(H2O)4](NO3)2, occupies a crystallographic inversion centre and is coordinated by two donor N atoms from two 2-methoxybenzldehyde isonicotinoylhydrazone ligands and by four O atoms from four coordinated water molecules, giving a slightly distorted octahedral geometry. There is an extended three-dimensional network structure resulting from O—HO hydrogen bonds between coordinated water and nitrate anions, and between coordinated water and carbonyl O atoms, and from N—HO hydrogen bonds between NH groups and nitrate O atoms.
