Summary:The title mononuclear MnII complex, [Mn(C13H14N2)4(H2O)2](PF6)2·H2O, is isostructural with the previously reported ZnII complex. The metal center is coordinated by four monodentate 1,3‐di‐4‐pyridylpropane (L1) ligands and two water molecules. One L1 ligand is affected by disorder of two propane C atoms, which are distributed over two positions, with occupancies 0.771 (8)/0.229 (8). The asymmetric unit is completed by one solvent water molecule and two PF6− anions, both disordered over two positions, with occupancies for F atoms of 0.621 (10)/0.379 (10) for one anion and 0.69 (2)/0.31 (2) for the other. Uncoordinated N atoms of pyridyl groups belonging to L1 and water molecules are involved in hydrogen bonds, with D...A separations ranging from 1.85 (4) to 2.07 (4) Å and D—H...A angles from 169 (3) to 174 (4)°.
