Abstract:
The synthesis of diaqua(1,10-phenanthroline-N,N')(thiosulfato-O,S)manganese(ll) [Mn(phen)(S(2)O(3))(H(2)O)(2)] was investigated. Its structure was determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction from 2418 reflections (I > 3 sigma(I)) to a final value of R = 0.047 and Rw = 0.054. Crystal data are as follows : space group P(2) (1); a = 10.356(3), b = 7.097(3), c = 20.316(2) A, beta = 94.29(2) degrees , V = 1489.1(8) , A(3), Z = 2. There are two independent title compounds in the asymetric unit. Each manganese atom has a distorted octahedral Mn(SO)N(2)O(2) geometry with the S and O atoms (from two neighbouring thiosulfate ligands) mutually trans, two N atoms from the 1,10-phenanthroline ligand and two water oxygen. The thiosulfate group behaves as a bridging ligand, connecting, through sulfur and oxygen, Mn atoms related by the binary b translation, thus forming infinite chains running parallel to this axis. Infrared and electronic spectra are reported.

Ionic Crystal Structures
Most monatomic ions behave as charged spheres, and their attraction for ions of opposite charge is the same in every direction. Consequently, stable structures for ionic compounds result (1) when ions of one charge are surrounded by as many ions as possible of the opposite...

Structural Isomerism
Isomers are different chemical species that have the same chemical formula. Structural isomerism of coordination compounds can be divided into two subcategories, the linkage isomers and coordination-sphere isomers.
Linkage isomers occur when the coordination compound contains a ligand that can bind to the transition metal center through two different atoms. For example, the CN− ligand can bind through the carbon atom or through the nitrogen atom. Similarly, SCN− can be...
