Abstract

The crystal structure of the coordination polymer [Mn₃(N₃)₂(nta)₄(H₂O)₂]_n (nta = nicotinate) consists of trinuclear subunits bridged by mixed μ-1,1-azide and μ-carboxylate-O,O groups, which are linked by μ₃-nta-N,O,O ligands into a three-dimensional network exhibiting ferrimagnetic-like ordering.
