Nano-sized Mn oxide: A true catalyst in the water-oxidation reaction

• A Mn oxido cluster in Nature is a model for artificial water-oxidizing catalysts.
• Mn oxides are true catalysts for many Mn-based water-oxidizing catalysts.
• Mn oxides are stable and efficient catalysts toward water oxidation.

The short perspective highlights new results by water-oxidizing Mn-based catalysts in artificial photosynthetic systems.

Mn oxides are the true catalysts in the water-oxidizing condition in the presence of many Mn complexes.Figure optionsDownload as PowerPoint slide
