X Abstract

We have obtained two new manganese(III) complexes based on tridentate ligands bearing imidazole and phenol moieties. The structure of the chosen ligands favored the Mn(III) oxidation state due to the compatibility of the geometry of the complexes with a Jahn-Teller tetragonal distortion, as was shown by X-ray diffraction for one of the complexes. This induced a lowering of the oxidation potential for the Mn(III)/Mn(II) couple, which can be correlated to the superoxide dismutase-like (SOD-like) activity of the complexes, compared with a previously published Mn(III) complex.
