Tetra-ethyl-ammonium hexa-cyanidoferrate(III) bis-(diaqua-{6,6'-dimeth-oxy-2,2'-[o-phenyl-enebis(nitrilo-methyl-idyne)]diphenolato}manganese(III))-methanol-ethanol (1/2/2).

ABSTRACT: In the title compound, (C(8)H(20)N)[Mn(C(22)H(18)N(2)O(4))(H(2)O)(2)][Fe(CN)(6)]·2CH(3)OH·2C(2)H(5)OH or [NEt(4)][Mn(3-Meosalophen)(H(2)O)(2)](2)[Fe(CN)(6)]·2CH(3)OH·2C(2)H(5)OH, the asymmetric unit consists of one half of an [NEt(4)](+) cation disordered around a twofold axis, the [Mn(3-Meosalophen)(H(2)O)(2)](+) coordination cation, one half of a C(2) symmetric [Fe(CN)(6)](3-) anion and disordered methanol and ethanol solvent mol-ecules that are equally populated at two different sites. The Mn(III) atom chelated by the 3-Meosalophen ligand adopts a slightly distorted MnN(2)O(4) octa-hedral geometry with the coordination completed by two water mol-ecules. The [Mn(3-Meosalophen)(H(2)O)(2)](+) cations, [Fe(CN)(6)](3- )anions and solvent mol-ecules are connected into a zigzag chain through hydrogen-bonding inter-actions.
