Analyses of supramolecular interactions present in a coordination polymer of Mn(II) with 2-picolinate and 4,4′-Azobis(pyridine)

A new Mn(II) coordination polymer has been synthesized using a primary ligand 2-picolinic acid and a neutral secondary spacer 4,4′-azpy. The 3d framework of the complex is stabilized via several supramolecular interactions which have been studied by DFT calculations.
