Single crystal X-ray diffraction studies reveal that complexes 1 and 2 have square pyramidal geometry and 3 has octahedral geometry, which showed a dependence of negative anisotropy (D) values on the electronic, geometry and packing effects.
A new MnIII complex exhibits a gradual spin crossover phenomenon with single crystal thermochromism. A comparative structural study was conducted using octahedral deviation parameters.
Formate tuned chloride pyrimidine-2-carboxylate Mn(II) complexes from a 2D 63 layer to a polar 3D interpenetrated srs-net exhibit an obvious SHG response of approximately 0.8 × KH2PO4 (KDP). Furthermore, 2 is an antiferromagnet with a field induced spin flop transition.
The absence of a metal–metal multiple bond in a dimeric manganese hydride catalyst supported by β-diketiminate ligands, [(2,6-iPr2PhBDI) Mn(μ-H)]2, was investigated with density functional theory in conjunction with experimental evidence.
A Mn–Schiff base complex supported on silica-coated iron magnetic nanoparticles was used for the electrochemical oxidation of sulfides and alkenes.
