%X The crystal structure of [ Mn ( terpy )2](I3)2( terpy = 2,2&#176;:6&#176;,2&#176;-terpyridene) has been determined by X-ray crystallography. The crystals are triclinic, space group P&#299; , a 9.357(4), b 8.600(2), c 24.531(8) &#506;, &#945; 93.64(2), B 95.58(3), &#947; 91.52(2)&#176;, Z 2, V 1960(1)&#506;3. The structure has been refined to a residual R of 0.065 (Rw 0.070). The coordination sphere of the metal ion is distorted octahedral with each terpy ligand coordinated in a meridional fashion. The structure is compared with those of other M( terpy )2n+ complexes formed by first-row transition metal ions.
