Beschreibung:
<jats:p>We report the synthesis and structures of two transition-metal complexes involving 2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)benzimidazole (2hpbi – a ligand of interest for its photoluminescent applications), with cobalt, namely, bis[μ-2-(1<jats:italic>H</jats:italic>-1,3-benzodiazol-2-yl)phenolato]bis[ethanol(thiocyanato)cobalt(II)], [Co<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>(C<jats:sub>13</jats:sub>H<jats:sub>9</jats:sub>N<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>O)<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>(NCS)<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>(C<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>H<jats:sub>6</jats:sub>O)<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>], (<jats:bold>1</jats:bold>), and manganese, namely, bis[μ-2-(1<jats:italic>H</jats:italic>-1,3-benzodiazol-2-yl)phenolato]bis{[2-(1<jats:italic>H</jats:italic>-1,3-benzodiazol-2-yl)phenolato](thiocyanato)manganese(III)} dihydrate, [Mn<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>(C<jats:sub>13</jats:sub>H<jats:sub>9</jats:sub>N<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>O)<jats:sub>4</jats:sub>(NCS)<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>]·2H<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>O, (<jats:bold>2</jats:bold>). These structures are two recent examples of a fruitful collaboration between researchers at the Laboratoire de Chimie de Coordination Organique/Organic Coordination Chemistry Laboratory (LCCO), University of Dakar, Senegal and the National Crystallography Service (NCS), School of Chemistry, University Southampton, UK. This productive partnership was forged through meeting at Pan-African Conferences on Crystallography and quickly grew as the plans for the AfCA (African Crystallographic Association) developed. This article therefore also showcases this productive partnership, in celebration of the IUCr's 75 year anniversary and the recent inclusion of AfCA as a Regional Associate of the IUCr.</jats:p>
