Abstract
In the molecule of the title compound, [MnCl2(C25H19N3)], the three N atoms span the axial-equatorial-axial sites of the trigonal-bipyramidal coordination polyhedron; the geometry of the Mn-II atom is 34% distorted from trigonal-bipyramidal (towards square-pyramidal along the Berry pseudorotation pathway). One of the Cl atoms is disordered over two positions in a 0.82 (3):0.18 (3) ratio. Weak intermolecular C-H center dot center dot center dot Cl hydrogen bonding occurs in the crystal structure.
