Abstract | |||||||||
| In the title complex, [Mn(C12H16NO5)2]·2CH3OH·0.5H2O, the MnII atom has a distorted octahedral coordination geometry in which two N atoms from two 6-methoxy-2-[tris(hydroxymethyl)methyliminomethyl]phenolate ligands adopt a trans arrangement. The Mn—O(H) bonds (mean length 2.134 Å) are significantly longer than the Mn—O and Mn—N bonds (mean length 2.011 and 2.027 Å, respectively), and the dihedral angle between the mean planes through the aromatic rings of the two ligands is 76.8 (1)°. A complex network of O—H...O hydrogen bonds is formed between the complexes and the uncoordinated methanol and water molecules. The C and O atoms of one C—OH group are disordered with equal occupancies. | |||||||||
