Bis[4-(4-pyridyl)pyridinium] μ-4,4'-bipyridine-bis-[tetra-aqua-(4,4'-bipyridine)manganese(II)] bis-(5-sulfonatobenzene-1,3-dicarboxyl-ate) 4,4'-bipyridine solvate penta-deca-hydrate.

ABSTRACT: The crystal structure of the title compound, (C(10)H(9)N(2))(2)[Mn(2)(C(10)H(8)N(2))(3)(H(2)O)(8)](C(8)H(3)O(7)S)(2)·C(10)H(8)N(2)·15H(2)O, consists of dinuclear Mn(II) complex cations, sulfonato-benzene-dicarboxyl-ate trianions, 4-(4-pyridyl)pyridinium cations, uncoordin-ated 4,4'-bipyridine and uncoordinated water mol-ecules. One 4,4'-bipyridine mol-ecule bridges two Mn atoms, forming a centrosymmetric dinuclear complex; the mid-point of the C-C bond linking the pyridine rings of the bridging ligand is located on an inversion center. Each Mn(II) atom is coordinated by four water and two 4,4'-bipyridine mol-ecules in a distorted octa-hedral geometry. The Mn(II) atom deviates by 0.591 (5) and 0.209 (2) Å from the mean planes of the coordinated pyridine rings. In the 4-(4-pyridyl)pyridinium
