A Mn(II) metal-organic framework {[MnL2(NCS)2]·(H2O)4}n (1) with L=bis(pyridin-3-ylmethylene) biphenyl-2,20`-dicarbohydrazide has been synthesized and characterized by IR spectroscopy, elemental analysis, UV spectroscopy, thermogravimetric (TG) analysis, powder X-ray diffraction, and single-crystal X-ray structure determination. The Mn(II) atom has a distorted octahedral coordination environment with an N6 donor set from four ligands and two NCS- anions. The structure of 1exhibits a layer framework containing tetranuclear metallacyclic ring units [MnII4L4] in the chair conformation. In addition, there are multiform O-H···O, C-H···O, N-H···O, and C-H···N hydrogen bonds and C-H···p interactions in a three-dimensional supramolecular network.
