Synthesis and Reactivity of a Mononuclear Manganese(II) Complex Having Pseudo-Seven Coordination Environment

초록

Utilizing a planar five coordinating N3S2 ligand, 2 6-bis(2-methylthiophenyliminomethyl)pyridine, a pseudo 7-coordinated manganese(II) complex with two labile triflate anions in the axial positions was synthesized. The reaction of the manganese(II) complex with an oxidant, iodosylbenzene, produced a metastable high-valent manganese(IV)-oxo species at 0 degrees C. The high-valent Mn(IV)-oxo intermediate was characterized with a UV-vis spectrophotometer and an electrospray ionization mass spectroscopy. Reactivity studies of the Mn(IV)=O species revealed that the intermediate is capable of oxygenating PPh3 and N-dealkylating N,N-dimethyl-toludine.
