A series of novel, air sensitive alkoxides of Mn(II) were prepared by alcoholysis reaction of Mn{N(SiMe 3 ) 2 } 2 · (THF), including sterically highly hindered derivatives soluble in organic solvents. The products, characterized by elemental analysis, reflectance spectroscopy and chemical behavior, range from amorphous coordination polymers and gelatinous fibers to (probably monomeric) crystals. Earlier literature descriptions of several Mn(II) alkoxides is corrected. Some oxidation results are discussed.
