A manganese complex with mixed ligands, [Mn(2,2′-biim)2(4,4′-bipy)] n[Mn(2,2′-biim)3]2 n6 n(ClO4)•8 nH2O (2,2′-biim = 2,2′-biimidazole; 4,4′-bipy = 4,4′-bipyridine), has been obtained by a hydrothermal procedure and its structure determined by single-crystal X-ray crystallography. A two-dimensional (2-D) supramolecular layer is established through hydrogen-bonding interactions. Solid-state photoluminescence measurement reveals that this complex shows a blue light emission. Solid-state diffuse reflectance determination uncovers the presence of a narrow optical band gap of 2.18 eV in this complex.
