The photoinduced oxidation of tetra(N-methyl-4-pyridyl)porphyrinmanganese(III) has been achieved in homogeneous solution. The manganese porphyrin was used as an electron donor in a three-component system with tris-(2,2'-bipyridine)ruthenium(II) as the photosensitizer and chloropentaamminecobalt(III) as the electron acceptor. The photooxidized manganese porphyrin is unstable in aqueous solution,...

The deposition of manganese in a water distribution system with manganese-related "dirty water" problems was studied over a 1-year period. Four monitoring laboratories with Robbins biofilm sampling devices fitted to the water mains were used to correlate the relationship among manganese deposition, the level of manganese in the water, and the chlorination conditions. Manganese deposition occurr...

Both ferromagnetic and ferroelectric properties were observed in two enantiomerically pure nanoscale manganese cluster complexes supported by chiral Schiff base ligands, each of which comprises a 22-nucleus mixed-valence manganese(II/III) supratetrahedral cluster cation and an equilateral-triangle trinuclear manganese(III) cluster anion with C(3) symmetry.

We describe here the ability of manganese oxide monosheets to aggregate to form layered structures with 4-aminophenol molecules. These aggregated monosheets could be considered as the first step to synthesize a self-assembled layered hybrid of phenol-manganese ions with phenol and manganese(III) and (IV) as exists in the water oxidizing complex of Photosystem II.

In this research, a PVC membrane electrode for Manganese (II) ions based on N-(2-Picolinamidoethyl)Picolinamide as neutral carrier was prepared. The electrode exhibits a Nemstian responseover Mn(II) concentration range of (1.0 x10-5 t01.0 X 10-1M) with a slope of 29.3±0.5 mV perdecade of concentration with a working pH range of 4.0-9.0. It has a fast response time (

in the present study, micellar-enhanced ultrafiltration (meuf) was used to remove manganese (mn) (ii) from synthetic wastewater. the effects of different operational conditions on the filtration performance of meuf or the membrane were studied. it was found that the transmembrane pressure has a major influence on the permeate flux and an insignificant effect on the rejection coefficient. the pe...

The oxygen-evolving photosystem II particles prepared from spinach chloroplasts with brief sonication and Triton X-100 treatment were subjected to butanol/water phase partitioning. Three peripheral proteins of photosystem II having relative molecular masses of 33,000, 24,000, and 18,000 daltons and a part of the manganese atoms associated with photosystem II were partitioned into the aqueous ph...

Manganese protoporphyrin IX was recombined with apoproteins of cytochrome c peroxidase, horseradish peroxidase, myoglobin, and hemoglobin to prepare artificial hemoproteins containing the manganese porphyrin in place of protoheme or iron protoporphyrin IX. Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectra of manganese (II) protoporphyrin IX and its apohemoprotein complexes were measured at Xand K-b...

Chemical distributions and microbial culture data are combined to identify the biogeochemical pathways that control the cycles of manganese and iron at the oxicanoxic transition of the Orca Basin. The redox transition coincides with an increase in salinity from 35 to 260‰; hence, mixing diagrams are used to constrain the salinity ranges over which consumption or production of solute species tak...
