The model compounds contain Mn 2(μ_O) 2 and μ_O_μ_carboxylato di_manganese structural units, which offer Mn—Mn, Mn……Mn, and Mn—O(N) structural parameters consistent with the corresponding data of the OEC in PSⅡ, implying that the Mn cluster in OEC may possess similar structural features. Two model compounds containing halide anion have been used for discussing the binding of Cl - to Mn in PSⅡ. It is suggested that in the five S states, ligand exchange would lead to the ligation of chloride to Mn in the S states with Mn of higher valence.展开更多
