Abstract
The MnII ion in the structure of the mononuclear title compound, [Mn(C4H3N2O2)2(H2O)4], is situated on an inversion center and is coordinated by two O atoms from two deprotonated 4,6-dihydroxypyrimidine ligands and by four O atoms from water molecules giving rise to a slightly distorted octahedral coordination sphere. The complex includes an intramolecular hydrogen bond between an aqua ligand and the non-protonated N ring atom. The extended structure is stabilized by intermolecular hydrogen bonds between aqua ligands, by hydrogen bonds between N and O atoms of the ligands of adjacent molecules, and by hydrogen bonds between aqua ligands and the non-coordinating O atom of an adjacent molecule.
