RESUMO
A 3D metal-organic framework, [Na{Mn(3)(Hbtc)(2)(btc)}.5H(2)O](n) () (H(3)btc = 1,3,5-benzene tricarboxylic acid), was synthesized under hydrothermal conditions. The structure of was established by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis; crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2/c, a = 9.753(3) A, b = 12.751(2) A, c = 14.174(4) A, beta = 109.41(1) degrees . The complex is isostructural to previously reported MIL-45 and consists of one dimensional wave like chains of carboxylate bridged hexa-coordinated Mn(ii) ions. Variable temperature magnetic susceptibility measurements revealed dominant antiferromagnetic exchange interactions and the intra-chain exchange constants J(1) = -2.4 cm(-1) and J(2) = -0.6 cm(-1) compare well with literature values for similar materials. Inter-chain interactions are expected to be very small in this compound and there is no indication of magnetic ordering phenomena in the temperature range from 300-2 K.
