Bioinspired mononuclear Mn complexes for O<sub>2</sub> activation and biologically relevant reactions
Emma N. Cook, Charles W. Machan
Abstract
An interest in harnessing the oxidizing power of O 2 has led to the synthetic models of Mn-dependent enzyme active sites. Here, we describe the recent advancements to the development of bioinspired mononuclear Mn complexes for O 2 activation.
