The first high oxidation state manganese-calcium cluster: relevance to the water oxidizing complex of photosynthesis.
Synthetic entry has been achieved into high oxidation state Mn-Ca cluster chemistry with the preparation of [Mn(13)Ca(2)O(10)(OH)(2)(OMe)(2)(O(2)CPh)(18)(H(2)O)(4)]; the structure contains [Mn(4)CaO(4)] sub-units similar to that found in the photosynthetic water oxidizing complex.
