Most biochemically relevant high-spin systems have such short 7j-relaxation times that their EPR is broadened beyond detection at ambient temperatures. An exception is the class of S = 5/2 Mn" systems with D hx. Also, S = 7/2 Gd"1-based MRI shift reagents exhibit readily detectable room-temperature EPR spectra. Otherwise, aqueous-solution transition ion bioEPR is limited to complexes of S = 1/2 metals, in particular Cu", and to a lesser extent VIV02+, NiIn, Ni1, Mov, and Wv. Cupric is the stable oxidation state of biological copper under aerobic conditions, however, the other metals are stable as Vv, Ni", MoVI, and WVI, and, therefore, the other oxidation states associated with S = 1/2 paramagnetism may exhibit oxidative or reductive reactivity and may thus require specific experimental precautions such as strict anaerobicity over the course of the EPR experiment. 

Fig. 2.21 shows a few examples of very complex systems characterized by the formation of several (point and solution range) intermediate phases often involved in a number of different formation and decomposition reactions. The crowded sequence of intermediate compounds of interrelated structures is noteworthy in the Au-rich region of the Au-Mn system. A similar situation (however, not yet well defined) may... 

X-Ray structural determinations on [(2,2 6, 2"-terpyridyl)Cd Mn(CO)5 2] and [Hg Mn(CO)5)2] have been reported. The former has distorted trigonal-bipyramidal geometry at the cadmium atom and shows considerable distortion of the octahedral co-ordination around the manganese atoms, and the latter contains a linear Mn—Hg—Mn system, the Mn(CO)5 groups being eclipsed. The complexes [X In Mn(CO)5)3 J (X = Cl or Bf n = 0—2) have been prepared and studied in detail. The indium-manganese bonds are readily... 

The potential participation of an alternative route, involving a binuclear elimination reaction between a metal-acyl and a metal-hydride has also been probed [73]. In Rh-catalysed cydohexene hydroformylation, both [Rh4(CO)i2] and [Rh(C(0)R)(C0)4] are observed by HP IR at steady state, the duster species being a potential source of [HRh(CO)4] by reaction with syn-gas. The kinetic data for aldehyde formation indicated no statistically significant contribution from binudear elimination, with hydrogenolysis of the acyl complex dominant. For a mixed Rh-Mn system. 

A good match was obtained with the results obtained from the standard BWG treatment, both for the A2/B2 and the B2/D03 transformation, and the expression was extended for use in the Cu-Ziv-Mn system (Chandrasekaran 1980). However, as these equations are based on the BWG approximation, which does not take into account sro, this approach was abandoned when the CVM formalism became more established. 

Figure 10.25 shows the liquidus projection for the Al-Fe-Mn system which is characterised by a substantial extension of the Al Mn phase into the ternary and... 

Cu and Mn, systems that have partially filled d shells with a degenerate ground state. According to the Jahn-Teller theorem, any degenerate electronic system will spontaneously distort in such a way as to remove the degeneracy (Dunitz and Orgel 1960). The distortions around Cu " have been extensively studied and may play a role in the superconductivity found in some copper oxides (Section 13.3.2), while the distortions around Mn + play an important role in the potentially useful magnetoresistive properties of LaMnOs (Section 13.3.3). 

Labeling the two isomers of the Mn system by the hapticity (number of ligating atoms) of the dppe ligand, the relevant homogeneous reaction to consider is that of Equation 23.37 ... 

In addition to thin-film electrodes, compact diamond single crystals grown at high temperature and high pressure have become the object of electrochemical study in recent years. These so-called HTHP crystals can be obtained by crystallization from a carbon solution in a metal melt (e.g., based on the Ni-Fe-Mn system) at /arranges that correspond to the conditions of thermodynamic stability of diamond. These crystals can be also doped with boron in the course of growth. 

On the other hand, unsaturated lipids may act as secondary mediators of the MnP/Mn system, in a mechanism known as lipid peroxidation, which is a free radical chain-reaction proceeding via the oxidation of unsaturated lipids [32, 33]. Thiols may also undergo oxidation by MnP/Mn and produce thiyl radicals, which in turn mediate in the oxidation of a variety of compounds [34]. 

Ga2S3-CdS-MgS-MnS Systems. The Ga2S3-CdS and Ga2S3-MgS systems are closely related. They give the definite compounds CdGa2S4 and MgGa2S4. The structure of the first is a superstructure of the blende (14). The structure of the second is not yet known. 

In the Ga2S3-MnS system, we observed several definite compounds between the compositions 2Ga2S3-MnS and Ga2S3-MnS. The compound MnGa2S4 has three polymorphic modifications. We are still studying this region. 

In the case of the Y2S3-CaS and Y2S3-MnS systems the compositions of the solid solutions were determined at several temperatures (Figure 4). 

As in the cobalt system, the reaction generates significant quantities of CH4 as a by-product (in some cases, the methane is the major product). The selectivity of homologated alcohol to hydrocarbon appears to be independent of the partial pressures of either CO or H2 127), and the authors suggest that this could be attributable, at least in the Mn system, to the relative rates of methyl migration to homolytic bond dissociation. In the iron system, methane is generated by simple reductive elimination from the HFe(CH3)(CO)4 intermediate. 

It would be of interest to find a fused system where CC bonds have the same hybridization and the partial bond fixation is produced by 7r-localization only. There is, fortunately, such a molecule which is shown in Fig. 9. Although triphenylene itself does not represent a MN-system in a sense of the definition given in section 2.1 belonging actually to...
