Intramolecular C–H and C–F Bond Oxygenation by Site-Differentiated Tetranuclear Manganese Models of the OEC

Intramolecular C–H and C–F Bond Oxygenation by Site-Differentiated Tetranuclear Manganese Models of the OEC
Graham de Ruiter, Theodor Agapie, Kurtis M. Carsch
This study describes novel manganese clusters that model structural aspects of the OEC. Upon treatment with an O atom transfer reagent, iodosobenzene, these complexes oxygenate aromatic C−H and C−F bonds, as evidenced by 1H NMR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, and independent synthesis of the resulting oxygenated products. The observed reactivity suggests the formation of a high-valent Mn-oxo species.
