In our attempt to search for mixed alkaline-earth and transition metal arsenates, the title compound, barium dimanganese(II) bis-(arsenate), has been synthesized by employing a high-temperature RbCl flux. The crystal structure of BaMn2(AsO4)2 is made up of MnO6 octa-hedra and AsO4 tetra-hedra assembled by sharing corners and edges into infinite slabs with composition [Mn2(AsO4)2]2- that extend ...
