The crystal structure of one novel Mn（II） complex, [Mn（pmta）_3]_2[Mn（H_2O）_6]·4H_2O（1）, is reported（Hpmta = 5-methyl-1-phenyl-1H-1,2,3-triazole-4-carboxylic acid）. In the title compound, the asymmetric unit consists of a [Mn（pmta_）3]ˉ anion, half [Mn（H_2O）_6]^（2＋） counter cation and two lattice H_2O molecules, and the intra- and intermolecular hydrogen bonds connect the complex into a supramolecular structure. The liquid-state fluorescence spectra of complex 1 have been determined. Hirshfeld surface analysis was also studied. The main intermolecular interactions in the complex are O···H and H···H contacts.

Synthesis,Crystal Structure and Luminescence Study of a New Two-dimensional Mn(Ⅱ)Coordination Polymer

The coordination polymer [Mn2（cipt）2（aic）2]n （cipt = 2-（3-chlorophenyl）-1H- imidazo[4,5-f][1,10]phenanthroline, aic = 5-amino-isophthalic acid） has been obtained from hydrothermal reaction and characterized by elemental analysis, IR, TG and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The title compound crystallizes in the triclinic system, space group P , with a = 11.523（3）, b = 12.162（3）, c = 18.706（5） A^°, β = 81.789（5）°, V = 2455.2（1） A^°3, C54H32Cl2Mn2N10O8, Mr = 1129.68, Z = 2, Dc = 1.528 g/cm3, μ = 0.692 mm^-1, F（000） = 1148, R = 0.064 and wR = 0.145 for 9571 observed reflections （I 〉 2σ（I））. In this polymer, the Mn（II） atoms adopt different coordination modes. The Mn（1） atom is five-coordinated, forming a distorted tetragonal pyramidal geometry. Mn（2） atom is six-coordinated to get a distorted octahedral geometry, which is different from the Mn（1） atom. Each Mn（II） atom is linked by aic ligands with neighboring Mn（II） atoms, forming an infinite one-dimensional （1D） double-chain structure. The existence of N–H…O hydrogen bonding interactions leads the 1D chains to generate a 2D structure. Luminescent properties for the ligand cipt and compound 1 have also been discussed in detail.

A three-dimensional coordination polymer [Mn2（μ1.3-N3）4（μ-PP）2]n （PP = 3-（pyrazin-2-yloxy）-pyridine） has been synthesized with 3-（pyrazin-2-yloxy）-pyridine and azide anion as mixed bridge ligand, and its crystal structure was determined by X-ray crystallography. The crystal data： triclinic system, space group P1, with a = 6.794（4）, b = 9.885（6）, c = 9.947（6） A, α = 64.170（6）, β= 84.190（8）, γ= 85.319（8）°, V = 597.7（6）A^3, Z = 1, C18H14Mn2N18O2, Mr = 624.35, Dc = 1.735 g/cm^3, F（000） = 314 and μ = 1.117 mm^-1. In the crystal, the azide anion acts as a bridge ligand and makes adjacent Mn（Ⅱ） ions connect into a two-dimensional sheet on the ab plane, then 3-（pyrazin-2-yloxy）-pyridine serves as a bidentate bridge ligand to connect neighboring sheets along

Syntheses, Crystal Structures and Antibacterial Activities of Cobalt(Ⅱ) and Manganese(Ⅱ) Complexes with Schiff Base Ligand Derived from Tryptamine

Two new mononuclear complexes, namely [Co（L）2]（1） and [Mn（L）2]（2）（HL = N-（3-methylsalicylidene）tryptamine）, have been synthesized by the reactions of the ligand with cobalt acetate or manganese acetate in anhydrous ethanol. The crystal structures of the complexes were characterized by IR spectrum, elemental analysis, PXRD and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Complex 1 crystallizes in monoclinic, space group C2/c, with a = 23.146（2）, b = 9.4864（10）, c = 13.9261（15）A, β = 102.898（2）°, V = 2980.6（5） ？3, Z = 4, Dc = 1.367 g/cm3, F（000） = 1284 and μ = 0.616 mm^-1. Complex 2 crystallizes in monoclinic, space group P21/n, with a = 14.807（11）, b = 13.118（10）, c = 16.663（13） A, β = 111.237（14）°, V = 3017（4） A^3, Z = 4, Dc = 1.342 g/cm^3, F（000） = 1276 and μ = 0.477 mm-1. The units of complex 1 are linked by intermolecular N–H…π hydrogen bonds into infinite 1D chains, which are further extended into a 3D supramolecular structure by a series of π···π stacking interactions. The units of complex 2 are linked by intermolecular N–H…π hydrogen bonds and C–H…π hydrogen bonds into an infinite 3D supramolecular structure. Meanwhile, the antibacterial activities of the ligand and its complexes have been tested against four kinds of bacteria. The results show that the three compounds all have excellent antibacterial activities and that 1 and 2 possess stronger inhibiting effects against the bacteria than the Schiff base.

Structural Evolution of the Mn_(0.52)Sb_(0.48) Compound during High Energy Ball Milling

The structural transitions of the NiAs-type Mn0.52Sb0.48 magneto-ordered compound, ball milled to different periods, have been characterized by X-ray diffraction and DSC analysis. On the basis of lattice parameter results a structural evolution mode with three stages is proposed. In the first stage lattice parameters keep nearly unchanged with the refinement of grains and increase of lattice strain. In the second stage, microstrain shows a lowering tendency accompanying the successive decreases of grain size. The X-ray revealed internal strain is found to be strains inside the lattice, which can be relaxed with new grain formation. The change of Tc is shown to be affected by the dimension of c axis, however the overall magnetization is continuously decreased with milling, due to the disordering process occurred in milling. Correspondent disordering mechanisms have been tentatively postulated and discussed according to the changes of lattice para meters.

A novel homozygous frameshift mutation in MNS1 associated with severe oligoasthenoteratozoospermia in humans

Oligoasthenoteratozoospermia(OAT)refers to the combination of various sperm abnormalities,including a decreased sperm count,reduced motility,and abnormal sperm morphology.Only a few genetic causes have been shown to be associated with OAT.Herein,we identified a novel homozygous frameshift mutation in meiosis-specific nuclear structural 1(MNS1;NM_018365:c.603_604insG:p.Lys202Glufs*6)by whole-exome sequencing in an OAT proband from a consanguineous Chinese family.Subsequent variant screening identified four additional heterozygous MNS1 variants in 6/219 infertile individuals with oligoasthenospermia,but no MNS1 variants were observed among 223 fertile controls.Immunostaining analysis showed MNS1 to be normally located in the whole-sperm flagella,but was absent in the proband's sperm.Expression analysis by Western blot also confirmed that MNS1 was absent in the proband's sperm.Abnormal flagellum morphology and ultrastructural disturbances in outer doublet microtubules were observed in the proband's sperm.A total of three intracytoplasmic sperm injection cycles were carried out for the proband's wife,but they all failed to lead to a successful pregnancy.Overall,this is the first study to report a loss-of-function mutation in MNS1 causing OAT in a Han Chinese patient.
