Control of the Electronic Structure of Manganese Nitrido Complexes by Para Ring Substituents：a Theoretical Study

The relationship between the electronic structures of manganese nitrido complexes and the substituted ligands is investigated by using density functional theory.By designing a series of manganese nitrido complexes [Mn（SalenR）N]＋ with different para ring substituents（R = H,CH_3,NH_2,OCH_3,NMeF,etc） of the ancillary ligand,the properties of manganese-nitrogen bonds were compared for two kinds of electronic structures,of which the radical resides on metal center or the coordinated ring ligand.Our calculation shows that for R = H,CH_3 and NH_2,the [Mn（SalenR）N]＋ complexes have a high-valent Mn（VI） center,and for R = OCH_3 and NMeF,the complexes represent a configuration where the radical delocalizes on the ligand.It is found that the relative energies of these two species depend on electronic properties of the substituent,originating from the intrinsic property of HOMO-LUMO gaps.
