Abstract

Recent advances are discussed in modelling the manganese dioxygen evolution center of green plant photosynthesis. The activity of the simplest catalyst, which is the Mn(IV) hydrocomplex, can be increased by decreasing the size of the catalyst particles and passing to manganese clusters. The use of bilayer phospholipid membranes can stabilize the catalyst particles, preventing their aggregation and thus increasing their activity and selectivity. When cyclodextrins are used as a support for the Mn catalytic centers, the catalyst stability, activity and selectivity can be further improved.
