Poly[(μ-4,4′-bipyridine)(μ-naphthalene-1,4-dicarboxyl­ato)manganese(II)]

In the crystal structure of the title compound, [Mn(C(12)H(6)O(4))(C(10)H(8)N(2))](n), the Mn atoms are each coordinated by four O atoms of naphthalene-1,4-dicarboxyl­ate anions and two N atoms of two symmetry-related 4,4′-bipyridine ligands within a strongly distorted octa­hedra. Two of the O atoms originate from one naphthalene-1,4-dicarboxyl­ate anion, whereas the remaining two O atoms derive from two symmetry-equivalent naphthalene-1,4-dicarboxyl­ate anions. Two Mn atoms are connected via the anions into dimers, which are further linked by the anions and the N-donor ligands into a three-dimensional coordination network.
