I had a very old mango tree taken down and I am having trouble growing anything where it was. Do mango trees have allelopathc properties?

It is possible that fungus growing in the dead root system is attacking any new plants. You could get a stump grinder in, and/or drench with some mild anti fungus agent. Someone else could comment on that. You could dig infected soil out and replace with a trailer load or more of good new soil. You may have to just leave the site a few years until the fungus finishes its work. I would be inclined to try some legumes until it all clears up.
