Abstract: A new complex, [Cu(L)(H2O)Mn(C2O4)]·4H2O(H2L=1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane-2,3-dione), was synthesized and structurally characterized by X-ray diffraction. The complex crystallizes in monoclinic space group P21/n with a=0.97471(5) nm, b=0.89316(5) nm, c=2.35635(11) nm, β=92.441(2)°, V=2.04951(18) nm3, Dc=1.691 Mg/m3, Z=4, R1=0.0607, wR2=0.1915(based on F2). The complex consists of [CuL(H2O)], Mn(Ⅱ), oxalate and lattice H2O molecules. Through the alternate oxalate bridges, the Mn(Ⅱ) ions form a zig-zag one-dimensional chain, while the other two coordination sites of the Mn(Ⅱ) ion are occupied by two oxygen atoms from L2- of [CuL(H2O)], giving rise to a mixed oxalate- and oxamido-bridged one-dimensional bimetallic complex. Magnetic studies show the presence of antiferromagnetic interaction between the Cu(Ⅱ) and Mn(Ⅱ) ions and between the adjacent Mn(Ⅱ) ions. Best fit to the experimental data by means of MAGPACK software gives the magnetic coupling constant of JCu-Mn=-13.1 cm-1 and JMn-Mn=-0.87 cm-1.
