Aquaazido{3,3′-[o-phenylenebis(nitrilomethylidyne)]di-2-naphtholato}manganese(III)
Abstract
In the title complex, [Mn(C28H18N2O2)(N3)(H2O)], the MnIII ion adopts a distorted fac-MnO3N3 octahedral geometry arising from the O,N,N′,O′-tetradentate Schiff base ligand, an azide ion and a water molecule. In the crystal, intermolecular O—H...(O,O) and O—H...N hydrogen bonds and π–π interactions [centroid–centroid separation = 3.5535 (13) Å] link the molecules into chains.
