By virtue of 2,6-bis(4-carboxybenzylidene)cyclohexanone (H2L) as the ligand, metal-organic framework [MnL](n) has been successfully fabricated. This compound has been characterized by FT-IR, powder X-ray diffraction, cyclic voltammogram, solid UV, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. It crystalizes in triclinic system with space group P (1) over bar, and the asymmetric unit is composed of one Mn(II) ion and one ligand. The carboxyl groups at both ends of the ligand are monodentate coordination, and the oxygen on the carbonyl group in the middle of the ligand coordinate with the central ion as well. Each ligand is coordinated with three Mn(II) ions and consequently, achieving a relatively stable triangular coordination configuration. The Mn(II) ion forms a six coordinated configuration with oxygen atoms from six different ligands, i.e., those four O atoms in the equatorial plane derived from four different ligands' carboxyl groups, the other two O atoms on the two vertices from the different ligands' carbonyl groups, respectively. As a consequence, the octahedral configuration [MnO6] unit is formed. Based on the topological analysis, its two-dimensional (2D) kgd structural character could be observed. The cyclic voltammogram showed that the half-wave potential, E-1/2=(E-cp+E-ap)/2, was 171 mV when the sweep speed was 30 mV.s(-1). The solid UV absorption spectra showed the band gap was similar to 1.76 eV. Photocatalytic activity has been observed in the process of degrading of dye molecules such as methylene blue and methyl orange.CCDC: 2045728.
