catena-Poly[[trans-bis(1,3-benzothiazole-κN)manganese(II)]-di-μ-chlorido]

Abstract

In the title coordination polymer, [MnCl2(C7H5NS)2]n, the MnII ion is located on the inter­section of a twofold rotation axis and a mirror plane and adopts an octa­hedral coordination geometry defined by two mutually trans N atoms from benzo­thia­zole ligands which occupy the axial positions, and four Cl atoms which form the equatorial sites. The MnII ions are connected by two bridging Cl atoms, forming chains parallel to the c axis. The crystal packing can be descibed as alternating layers parallel to (001) featuring π–π stacking inter­actions with a centroid–centroid distance of 3.6029 (15) Å.

“…Recently, the use of antimony complexes in cancer chemotherapy has become a topic of interest (Demicheli et al, 2006;Rais et al, 2000). As part of our ongoing studies of benzothiazole-based coordination networks (Bouchareb et al, 2014), we now report the polymeric structure of new organicinorganic hybrid compound {(C 7 H 6 NS) 2 [Sb 2 Cl 6 O]} n , (I).…”
