In this research iron manganese oxide nanocomposites were prepared by co-precipitation, sol-gel and mechanochemical methods by using iron (III) nitrate, iron (II) sulfate and manganese (II) nitrate as starting materials. These nanocomposites were prepared in the presence of various catalyst beds. The polyvinyl pyrrolidon (PVP) was used as a capping agent to control the agglomeration of the nano...

In the present work, we have reported the in situ oxidation of manganese (II) acetate to MnO2 nanoparticles through the thermal plasma carbonized natural hydroxyapatite (MnO2/TP-NHAp) as a neoteric sustainable method. Interestingly, the thermal plasma-processed surface of the NHAp shows a great ability for oxidation of the manganese (II) without need of any external oxidizing agents. The cataly...

In the title compound, [Mn(N(3))(2)(C(6)H(6)N(4))(2)], the Mn atom (site symmetry ) is bonded to two azide ions and two bidentate biimidizole ligands, resulting in a slightly distorted octa-hedral MnN(6) geometry for the metal ion. In the crystal structure, N-H⋯N hydrogen bonds help to consolidate the packing.

Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are widely used everywhere today, and their recycling is very important. This paper addresses the recovery of metals from NMC111 (LiNi1/3Mn1/3Co1/3O2) cathodic materials by leaching followed antisolvent precipitation. Ultrasound-assisted material was performed in 1.5 mol L−1 citric acid at 50 °C a solid-to-liquid ratio 20 g/L. Nickel(II), manganese(II) cobalt(II) we...

Single crystals of manganese(II) octa-uranium(IV) hepta-deca-sulfide, MnU(8)S(17), were grown from the reaction of the elements in a RbCl flux. MnU(8)S(17) crystallizes in the space group C2/m in the CrU(8)S(17) structure type. The asymmetric unit is composed of the following atoms with site symmetries shown: U1 (1), U2 (m), U3 (m), Mn1 (2/m), S1 (1), S2 (1); S3 (m), S4 (m), S5 (m), S6 (m) and ...

Mn(II)-oxidizing microbes have an integral role in the biogeochemical cycling of manganese, iron, nitrogen, carbon, sulfur, and several nutrients and trace metals. There is great interest in mechanistically understanding these cycles and defining the importance of Mn(II)-oxidizing bacteria in modern and ancient geochemical environments. Linking Mn(II) oxidation to cellular function, although st...

In the title compound, [Mn(C(7)H(6)NO(4)S)(2)(H(2)O)(4)], the Mn atom, lying on an inversion center, exhibits a distorted octa-hedral coordination by six O atoms, two from carboxyl-ate groups and four from water mol-ecules. The SO(2)NH(2) group is involved in a three dimensional polymeric hydrogen bonding network along with the water mol-ecules. π-Stacking inter-actions parallel to the c axis l...

Deinococcus radiodurans is extremely resistant to ionizing radiation. How this bacterium can grow under chronic gamma radiation [50 grays (Gy) per hour] or recover from acute doses greater than 10 kGy is unknown. We show that D. radiodurans accumulates very high intracellular manganese and low iron levels compared with radiation-sensitive bacteria and that resistance exhibits a concentration-de...

Mine drainage waters vary considerably in the range and concentration of heavy metals they contain. Besides iron, manganese is frequently present at elevated concentrations in waters draining both coal and metal mines. Passive treatment systems (aerobic wetlands and compost bioreactors) are designed to remove iron by biologically induced oxidation/precipitation. Manganese, however, is problemat...
