Hydride transfer from NADH analogues to a nonheme manganese(iv)–oxo complex via rate-determining electron transfer†
Abstract
Hydride transfer from NADH analogues to a nonheme Mn(IV)–oxo complex, [(Bn-TPEN)MnIV(O)]2+, proceeds via a rate-determining electron transfer step with no deuterium kinetic isotope effect (KIE = 1.0 ± 0.1); a charge-transfer complex formed between the MnIV(O) complex and NADH analogues is involved in the hydride transfer reaction.
