A manganese oxide with phenol groups as a promising structural model for water oxidizing complex in Photosystem II: a ‘golden fish’

Abstract

We describe here the ability of manganese oxide monosheets to aggregate to form layered structures with 4-aminophenol molecules. These aggregated monosheets could be considered as the first step to synthesize a self-assembled layered hybrid of phenol–manganese ions with phenol and manganese(III) and (IV) as exists in the water oxidizing complex of Photosystem II.
