Structural Types in Oxide-Bridged Manganese Chemistry Toward a Model of the Photosynthetic Water Oxidation Center George Christou and John B. Vincent Department of Chemistry, Indiana University, Bloomington, IN 47405

A survey is presented of the structural types encountered during synthetic efforts in oxide-bridged manganese chemistry. These materials have resulted from efforts to model the Mn aggregate at the water oxidation center (WOC) of green plants. Complexes with Mn nuclearities i n the range 2-12 are currently known, and their structural parameters are compared with those deduced by study of the WOC. The 'short' (ca 2.7Å) Mn...Mn separation of the latter has been seen to date only i n synthetic species containing two oxide bridges between a Mn2 pair, whereas, the 'long' (ca 3.3Å) separation is compatible with at most only one oxide bridge. Particular emphasis is given to the dinuclear and tetranuclear complexes which most closely reproduce features observed or deduced i n the WOC, and the potential correspondence of these complexes to the various S states of the latter is discussed. n
