title: A novel Mn-containing conducting metallopolymer obtained by electropolymerization in aqueous solution of a tetranuclear oxo-bridged manganese complex.
abstract: The [Mn(4)(IV)O(5)(terpy)(4)(H(2)O)(2)](6+) complex shows great potential for electrode modification by electropolymerization using cyclic voltammetry. The electropolymerization mechanism was based on the electron transfer between dx(2)-y(2) orbitals of the metallic center and pπ orbital of the ligand.
