A novel nano – sized manganese (II) coordination polymer, [{Mn(NCS)2(L)(H2O)2}(L)]n , (1) (L– = 4,4'-Bipyridine), have been synthesized by a sonochemical process and characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), IR spectroscopy and elemental analysis. Direct calcination of the single crystals and nano-sized compound 1 at 400 0C under air atmosphere yields mixture […]
