title: New routes to manganese higher-nuclearity topologies: synthesis of the cluster [Mn8(mu4-O)4(phpz)8(thf)4].
abstract: Reaction of Mn(ClO4)2.6H2O with 3(5)-methyl-5(3)-(2-hydroxyphenyl)pyrazole (H2phpz) affords a highly asymmetric octanuclear manganese(III) cluster resulting from the different bridging coordination modes of the ligand H2phpz.
