Syntheses, structure, and properties of a manganese–calcium cluster containing a Mn4Ca2 core

Abstract

We describe here a novel, simple, efficient self-assembly method for the in situ generation of [Mn4Cl4(µ-OCH2CH2OMe)4(EtOH)4] (1) and [Mn4(µ-Cl)Cl3(µ-OCH2CH2OMe)4(HOCH2CH2OMe)3]2 (2) cubane-type compounds which react readily with calcium species to form cluster [Mn4Ca2Cl4(µ-OCH2CH2OMe)8] (3), the calcium atoms attached to the Mn4 unit of 3 flatten out the cubane inducing significant conformational changes.
