Laser Flash Photolysis Study of Jacobsen Catalyst and Related Manganese(III) Salen Complexes. Relevance to Catalysis
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The laser flash photolysis and emission properties of a set of five-coordinate manganese(III) Schiff-base complexes have been examined. In contrast to the intramolecular electron transfer between Mn3+ and the equatorial salen ligand reported to occur in the absence of axial coordination, our laser flash photolysis study has shown that the reactivity of the respective excited states is appreciably influenced by the electron donor strength of the apical ligand at the metal center. In fact, homolytic and heterolytic photocleavage of the metal-ligand apical bond can be the most important processes upon laser excitation, their relative contribution being influenced by medium effects and the sigma-charge donation of the axial ligand. On the other hand, the detection of reactive intermediates such as the oxomanganese(V) salen complex (lambda(max) 530 nm) by laser flash photolysis opens the way to apply this fast detection technique to the study of reaction mechanisms in catalysis by metallic complexes. As a matter of fact, quenching of oxomanganese(V) salen by simple alkenes has been observed by laser flash.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
