Abstract

In the title complex, [Mn(II)Mn(III) (2)(C(11)H(13)NO(4))(2)(CH(3)CO(2))(4)(H(2)O)(2)]·2CH(3)CN·2H(2)O, there are two Mn(III) and one Mn(II) atoms. The Mn(II) atom lies on an inversion center and the Mn(III)-Mn(II)-Mn(III) angle is therefore 180°, as required by crystallographic symmetry. The Mn(III) and Mn(II) atoms are six-coordinated in a distorted octa-hedral geometry. In the crystal, complex mol-ecules and solvent mol-ecules are linked into a three-dimensional network by O-H⋯O and O-H⋯N hydrogen-bonding inter-actions.
