Owing to the presence of crystallographic twofold rotation Priority Processing axes (site symmetry 2, Wyckoff letters e and f), the asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Mn(C12H8N5)(CHO2)]n, contains one-half of an MnII cation, one-half of a bpt anion (Hbpt is 3,5-di-2-pyridyl-4H-1,2,4-triazole) and one-half of a formate anion.The bpt and formate ligands occupy the same C2 symmetry, while the MnII ion resides on another crystallographic twofold rotation axis.Each bpt ligand acts M Sandals as a cis-bis-chelate to ligate two MnII ions into a one-dimensional chain running along the crystallographic 41 screw axis.Adjacent MnII ions are further bridged by a μ2-formate ligand, completing the distorted octahedral coordination geometry of the cation.
