The hydrothermal reactions of MnCl{sub 2}.4H{sub 2}O, 3,4-pyridinedicarboxylic acid (3,4-pydaH{sub 2}) and triethylamine in aqueous medium yield two 3D metal-organic hybrid materials, [Mn(3,4-pyda)] (1) and [Mn{sub 3}(OH){sub 2}(3,4-pyda){sub 2}(H{sub 2}O){sub 2}] (2), respectively. In both complexes, each 3,4-pyda acts as a pentadentate ligand to connect five Mn(II) atoms via the pyridyl group and the two {mu}{sub 2}-carboxylate groups (one in syn,anti-mode and one in syn-syn mode for 1 and both in syn,anti-mode for 2). Complex 1 possesses an interesting 3D coordination polymeric structure incorporating 1D helical Mn({mu}{sub 2}-carboxylate){sub 2} chain units, in which each Mn(II) atom is coordinated in less common square pyramidal geometry to four carboxylato oxygen atoms and one pyridyl nitrogen atom. Each 3,4-pyda links three helical Mn({mu}{sub 2}-carboxylate){sub 2} chains and each Mn({mu}{sub 2}-carboxylate){sub 2} chain is linked by other eight helical Mn({mu}{sub 2}-carboxylate){sub 2} chains via sharing 3,4-pyda bridges. Complex 2 is a 3D coordination network consisting of 1D Mn{sub 3}(OH){sub 2} chains and 3,4-pyda bridges. The repeating trimeric structural unit in the manganese(II) hydroxide chain consists of two edge-sharing symmetry-related manganese octahedra linked via {mu}{sub 3}-OH to a vertex of Mn{sub 2} octahedron. Each 3,4-pyda links three Mn{sub 3}(OH){sub 2} chains and each Mn{sub 3}(OH){sub 2} chain is linked by other six Mn{sub 3}(OH){sub 2} chains via 3,4-pyda bridges, resulting in a 3D coordination solid. Magnetic measurements reveal that a weak antiferromagnetic interaction between the Mn{sup II} ions occurs in complex 1 and a 3D magnetic ordering at about 7.0K in complex 2.
