Abstract
. The EPR parameters of a series of dinuclear manganese(III,IV) complexes with mono(μ-oxo), bis(μ-oxo), (μ-oxo)(μ-carboxylato), bis(μ-oxo)(μ-carboxylato), and (μ-oxo)bis(μ-carboxylato) bridges were studied by broken-symmetry density functional (DFT) methods. The influence of the exchange-correlation functional on the agreement with experiment has been evaluated systematically for g tensors; 55 Mn, 14 N, and 1 H hyperfine coupling tensors; and Heisenberg exchange couplings. 14 N and 1 H hyperfine couplings, 55 Mn hyperfine anisotropies, g tensors, and exchange couplings are well described by hybrid functionals with moderate exact-exchange admixtures such as B3LYP. The isotropic 55 Mn hyperfine couplings require larger exact-exchange admixtures. However, the errors of the B3LYP calculations are systematic and may be corrected by a constant scaling factor, providing good predictive power for a wide range of EPR parameters with broken-symmetry DFT and standard functionals. The influence of terminal and bridging ligands on structure, spin-density distributions, and EPR parameters are evaluated systematically. Computed hyperfine and g tensors are not covariant to each other. This may have consequences for spectra simulations. The nature of the broken-symmetry state and the origin of its spin contamination were analyzed by an expansion into restricted determinants, based on paired orbitals.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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 it
