Two new manganese(III) Schiff base complexes, [Mn(salen)(m-NO2-C6H4CO2)(H2O)] (1) and [Mn(msalen) (p-OH-C6H4CO2)(H2O)] (2), where H2salen = N,N'-bis(salicylidene)-1,2-diaminoethane, H2msalen = N,N'-bis (3-methoxysalicylidene)-1,2-diaminoethane were synthesized from the manganese (II) carboxylates. Single crystal X-ray diffraction studies show that the Jahn-Teller distorted octahedral complexes are stabilized by H-bonded chains and networks in the solid state.
