How metal-oxide and metal-oxo-hydroxide structures form in the early stages of nucleation is of importance in areas as diverse as biology, for example, the formation of ferritin from apoferritin, [1][2][3] and materials science, for example, the synthesis of metal-oxide particles for use in information stor-[*] Dr.

The structural characterisation of a 2D sheet complex [[Mn2(Hetheidi)2(mu-H2O)(H2O)].3H2O]n 1 [Hetheidi =DL-N-(1-hydroxymethylpropyl)iminodiacetic acid] assembled from the tetradentate ligand Hetheidi and MnCl2 reveals the presence of rare unsupported mu-aqua bridges and novel hydrogen-bonded water channels, which bind the sheets together.
