ABSTRACT
One complex [Mn(dnpt)(aic)]n [dnpt = 2-(4-nitrophenyl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-f][1,10]phenanthroline, aic = 5-Amino-isophthalic acid] was obtained from hydrothermal reaction and was characterized by elemental analysis, IR, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The crystal structure shows that the manganese ion is coordinated with two nitrogen atoms of one dnpt molecule and four oxygen atoms from three aic molecules, forming a distorted octahedral coordination geometry. Each Mn(II) atom is linked by aic ligands with neighbor Mn(II) atoms, forming an infinite one-dimensional (1D) double-chain structure. The luminescent properties for the ligand and complex 1 are also discussed in detail (CCDC 1030059).
