Abstract
Na4[Mn(NCS)6] · 13H2O was prepared and characterized by chemical analysis, magnetic susceptibility, thermal dehydration reactions, and single crystal X-ray structure analysis. The crystals are triclinic with a=9.310(1)Å, b=9.367(1)Å, c=9.730(2)Å, α= 89.89(1)°,β=75.33(1)°, γ=70.72(1)°, space group P¯I.Z=1. The structure is built up from Na(H2O)5 S, Na(H2O)6, and Mn(NCS)6, octahedra. All water molecules are coordinated to Na+ -ions in terminal as well as bridging fashion. They form O-H···O as well as O-H···S hydrogen bonds.
