Bis(acetylacetonato-κ2O,O′)(methanol-κO)(thiocyanato-κN)manganese(III)

Abstract

In the title complex, [Mn(C5H7O2)2(NCS)(CH4O)], the MnIII atom has a slightly distorted octahedral coordination formed by five O atoms and one N atom. The equatorial positions are occupied by four O atoms of two acetylacetonate ligands, while the axial positions are occupied by the N atom of the thiocyanate anion and the O atom of the methanol molecule. In the crystal structure, complex molecules are linked by an intermolecular O—H...S hydrogen bond, forming a chain running along [101].
