Exploring the Role of Carbonate in the Formation of an Organomanganese Tetramer

Exploring the Role of Carbonate in the Formation of an Organomanganese Tetramer
Suman Kr Dey, David C. Lacy, Karthika J. Kadassery, Alan E. Friedman
The formation of the known organomanganese tetramer [Mn(CO)3(μ3-OH)]4 is accomplished by the treatment of Mn2(CO)10 with Me3NO and water. The exclusion of water in this transformation allowed for the detection and isolation of an intermediate compound that contains carbonato ligands. The intermediate reacts with water to form the tetramer and carbon dioxide, and labeling studies demonstrate that the oxygen atoms in water and carbonate are installed into the tetramer.
