Title: Coordination compounds of manganese(II) with polyamines - catalysts of the oxidation of organic dyes by hydrogen peroxide

Journal Article · · Sov. J. Coordinat. Chem.; (United States)
OSTI ID:6158903

The peroxidase activity of complexes of manganese(II) with polyamines has been characterized. A comparison of the original and literature data has led to the conclusion that the oxidation of organic substrates having some complexing ability with respect to Manganese(II) in Mn(II)-ligand-H/sub 2/O/sub 2/-S systems takes place according to an inner-sphere ion-molecule mechanism. In cases in which the substrate does not have any complexing ability with respect to Manganese(II), the oxidation process takes place according to an outer-sphere mechanism.
