THEORETICAL STUDY OF HYDROGEN PEROXIDE DECOMPOSITION BY DINUCLEAR MANGANESE COMPLEXES
Dinuclear manganese based enzymes engage in processes as diverse as hydrogen peroxide disproportionation and α-amino acidhydrolysis. N,N’-bis(2-pyridylmethyl)-ethylamine dimanganese complexes manifest a high catalytic activity in the hydrogen peroxide decomposition in two stages. In this work the results of DFT calculations on two complexes, [(L)2(Mn(III))2(CH3CO2)2(OH)2]2+ and [(L)2(Mn(IV))2(CH3CO2)2(O)2]2+, involved in steps (I) and (II), different values of the total spin are reported. According to these calculations it results that both systems with high-spin electronic terms have lowest energy. The general energy gain calculated in this processes is -46.56 kcal/mol and this fact confirms the feasibility of this reaction. Keywords: modeling, DFT, mechanism, hydrogen peroxide, catalase, dinuclear complexes, transition states.
