Abstract

Two coordination polymers of {[Mn(maleate)(μ-4,4'-bipy)]·0.5(H2O)}∞ (1) and {[Mn(fumarate)(μ-4,4'-bipy)(H2O)]·0.5(4,4'-bipy)}∞ (2) (bipy = bipyridine) were synthesized and structurally characterized. The 1-D [Mn(maleate)]8 chains were formed by maleate molecules chelating Mn atoms, and these chains were connected with 4,4'-bipy to form a 2-D structure (structure 1). The 2-D [Mn(fumarate)(H2O)]∞ layers were composed of the fumarate molecules coordinating different Mn ions, and these layers were linked with 4,4'-bipy to give a 3-D open framework (structure 2).
