The three CO ligands have C¡ªMn¡ªC angles in the range 89.44 (10)¨C92.31 (9)¡ã, while the three N atoms of the tripodal ligand form significantly smaller N¡ªMn¡ªN angles of 82.76 (2)¨C85.51 (6)¡ã. The three N atoms of the tripodal ligand and the three carbonyl ligands coordinate facially. In the crystal, the trifluoromethanesulfonate counter anion is connected by a medium-strength O¡ªH...O hydrogen bond to the hydroxyl group of the manganese complex. %U http://scripts.iucr.org/cgi-bin/paper?S1600536812035891
