Abstract

An unexpected 3D manganese vanadate (en)Mn2(V2O 7) (1) (en=ethylenediamine) has been hydrothermally obtained by H2E2Ge2O3 (E=-CH2CH 2COO-) ligands and well-prepared mixture of VMn-amine and characterized by IR spectroscopy, elemental analysis, thermal stability and powder X-ray diffraction. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that the structure is a novel pillared-layer, in which MnO5N octahedra are corner-linked to form an infinite sheet with 4-membered rings (MRs) and further condensed to the 3D framework. The most prominent feature of 1 is the connection between the sheets via double bridges, namely, inorganic V 2O7 dimeric units and organic en molecules. It is noteworthy that inorganic and organic double bridges between sheets have not been seen in manganese vanadates.
