Supramol. photocatalysts for CO2 reduction, constituted of redox photosensitizer, catalyst, and bridging ligand, play crucial roles in constructing hybrid systems with solid materials and photoelectrochem. cells for artificial photosynthesis. The authors report the 1st supramol. photocatalysts with a Mn(I) catalyst [MnBr(CO)3(BL)] and photosensitizer unit(s) [Ru(dmb)2(BL)]2+ (dmb = 4,4′-dimethyl-2,2′-bipyridine, BL = bridging ligand). A 1:1 ratio between the redox photosensitizer and catalyst units showed higher activity for HCOOH formation in comparison to the corresponding mixed system of mononuclear complexes. The experimental part of the paper was very detailed, including the reaction process of Bromopentacarbonylmanganese(I)(cas: 14516-54-2Computed Properties of C5BrMnO5)
Bromopentacarbonylmanganese(I)(cas: 14516-54-2) has many other uses. It is used in the formation of (eta6-arene)tricarbonylmanganese(I) by reacting with arene (arene= hexamethyl benzene, 1,2,4,5-tetramethyl benzene, mesitylene, p-xylene and toluene) in the presence silver salt.Computed Properties of C5BrMnO5
