Synthesis, crystal structure and thermal properties of poly[bis-[μ-3-(amino-meth-yl)pyridine-κ² N:N']bis(thio-cyanato-κN)manganese(II)].

ABSTRACT: The reaction of Mn(NCS)₂ with a stoichiometric amount of 3-(amino-meth-yl)pyridine in ethanol led to the formation of the title compound, [Mn(NCS)₂(C₆H₈N₂)₂] _n , which is isotypic to its Zn, Co and Cd analogues. The manganese cation is located on a centre of inversion and is octa-hedrally coordinated in an all-trans configuration by two terminal N-bonded thio-cyanate anions as well as four 3-(amino-meth-yl)pyridine co-ligands, of which two coordinate with the pyridine N atom and two with the amino N atom. The 3-(amino-meth-yl)pyridine co-ligands connect the Mn^II cations into layers extending parallel to (10). These layers are further connected into a three-dimensional network by relatively
