Manganese complexes of 1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane (PTA): the first nitrogen-bound transition-metal complex of PTA.
The structures of two manganese(II) complexes of 1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane (PTA) reveal the first transition-metal complexes of PTA in which the metal preferentially coordinates to a nitrogen and not the phosphorus of PTA. The coordination environment about the manganese was probed using X-ray crystallography (solid state) and EXAFS spectroscopy (solution).
