The mononuclear complexes (Bu4N)[Mn(Cl4Cat)2(H2O)(EtOH)] and (Bu4N)2[Mn(Cl4Cat)3] (H2Cat=1,2-dihydroxybenzene) have been synthesised and characterised by X-ray diffraction. This work provides a direct, independent, synthesis of these complexes and an interesting example of how solvent effects can promote the formation of either a manganese(III) or manganese(IV) complex of the same ligand. The characterisation of (Bu4N)[Mn(Cl4Cat)2(H2O)(EtOH)] supports previous work that manganese(III) is extremely reluctant to form tris (catecholato) complexes due to the short `bite distance' of catecholate oxygen atoms (2.79 Å) which are unable to span the elongated coordination axes of the Jahn-Teller distorted Mn(III) ion and explains the 2:1 and 3:1 TETRACHLOROCATECHOL (cas 1198-55-6):manganese ratios in the Mn(III) and Mn(IV) complexes, respectively. Hydrogen peroxide production using dioxygen and hydroxylamine as substrates in acetonitrile/water mixtures, under ambient conditions, can be demonstrated with both complexes, suggesting that neither labile coordination sites nor the oxidation state of the manganese are important to the catalytic system. Turn over frequencies (TOF, moles of H2O2 per moles of manganese per hour) of ∼10 000 h−1 are obtained and this compares very favourably with the commercial production of hydrogen peroxide by the autoxidation of 2-ethylanthrahydroquinone (AO process).
