Abstract:
In the title compound, [Mn(C(9)H(6)N(3)O(2))(2)(H(2)O)(4)]·10H(2)O, the Mn(II) ion is coordinated by two N atoms from two 4-(4H-1,2,4-triazol-4-yl)benzoate ligands and four water mol-ecules in a distorted octa-hedral geometry. The Mn(II) ion and two coordinated water mol-ecules lie on a twofold rotation axis. The water mol-ecules are involved in O-H⋯N and O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds with the triazole N atoms and carboxyl-ate O atoms, yielding a three-dimensional supra-molecular network. π-π inter-actions between the benzene rings [centroid-centroid distance = 3.836 (9) Å] are observed.

When atoms or molecules absorb light at the proper frequency, their electrons are excited to higher-energy orbitals. For many main group atoms and molecules, the absorbed photons are in the ultraviolet range of the electromagnetic spectrum, which cannot be detected by the human eye. For coordination compounds, the energy difference between the d orbitals often allows photons in the visible range to be absorbed and emitted, which is seen as colors by the human eye.
