Manganese(II) octauranium(IV) heptadecasulfide

Structural and magnetic studies of two-dimensional solvent-free manganeseII complexes prepared via ligand exchange reaction under solvothermal conditions.

Systematic investigation of the ligand exchange reactions between manganese(II) acetate and benzoic acid under solvothermal conditions led to the isolation of crystalline complexes {Mn5(OC(O)CH3)6(OC(O)C6H5)4}(infinity) ( 1) and {Mn5(OC(O)CH3)4(OC(O)C6H5)6}}(infinity) ( 2) in high (i.e., >90%) yields. The complexes are characterized structurally as 2-D honeycomb-like sheets comprised of edge-sh...
