Synthesis and structure of an unprecedented supramolecular bridged-hydroxyl manganese(III)-lithium(I) coordination polymer [MnIIIL(OH)2LiI]n through both intermolecular hydrogen bonds and π–π stacking interactions

An unprecedented linear supramolecular manganese(III)-lithium(I) coordination polymer, [MnIIIL(OH)2LiI]n, has been prepared and structurally characterized. The polymer is a one-dimensional infinite Mn(III)–O–Li(I) chain supramolecular structure formed by intermolecular O–H···O and O–H···Cl hydrogen bonds and π–π stacking of neighboring benzene rings.
