Poly[(μ2-azido-κ2N1:N1)[μ2-5-(8-quinolyloxymethyl)tetrazolato-κ4N1,O,N5:N4]manganese(II)]
Abstract
In the structure of the title compound, [Mn(C11H8N5O)(N3)]n, the Mn atoms are hexacoordinated by five N atoms and one O atom. The coordination polyhedron of the Mn atom is a slightly distorted octahedron. The Mn atoms are connected by azide anions with a μ2-1,1 mode and by 5-(8-quinolyloxymethyl)tetrazolate ligands in a μ2-η1(N),η3-(N,N,O) fashion to form a two-dimensional framework parallel to the (100) plane. Geometric parameters of the organic ligand are in the normal ranges and the dihedral angle between the quinoline ring system and the tetrazole unit is 7.41 (15)°. The structure involves intra- and intermolecular C—H...N hydrogen bonds.
