The interaction of Mn with substituted salicylaldehydes (X-saloH) led to the formation of five manganese(II) complexes formulated as [Μn(X-salo)(MeOH)]. When the reactions took place in the presence of an α-diimine such as 2,2'-bipyridine, 1,10-phenanthroline or 2,2'-bipyridylamine, five manganese(II) complexes of the formula [Mn(X-salo)(α-diimine)] were isolated. The characterization of the complexes was accomplished by various spectroscopic techniques and single-crystal X-ray crystallography. The antioxidant activity of the compounds was evaluated via the scavenging of 1,1-diphenyl-picrylhydrazyl, 2,2'-azinobis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) and hydroxyl free radicals. The antibacterial activity of the complexes was tested in vitro against Staphylococcus aureus and Xanthomonas campestris bacterial strains and was found moderate. Diverse techniques were employed to examine the interaction of the complexes with calf-thymus DNA which showed intercalation as the most possible interaction mode. The affinity of the complexes for bovine serum albumin was investigated by fluorescence emission spectroscopy and the binding constants were determined.

The article reports a hitherto-unknown aromatic proton transfer (APT) to the o-amine function chelated to manganese(II) ion and disintegration of the molecule generating an aryne intermediate. The reaction of (NQ)-NH(AQ) (o-HLH) with manganese(II) acetate in boiling DMF generates [MnII(o-HL-)2], where the o-HLH ligands undergo disintegration forming manganese(II) complexes of AQ and an 1,4- naphthoquinonyne intermediate based on benzoquinone ring, that has been defined as [NQ-2H] (NQ and AQ abbreviate respectively 1,4-naphthoquinone and 8-aminoquinoline fragments). The disintegration reaction of o-HLH depends on the metal precursor used, solvent and temperature.

Transition metal complex-loaded nanosystems (TMCNs) represent a cutting-edge platform for stimuli (light, ultrasound)-responsive cancer therapies. These nanosystems, incorporating metals such as manganese(II), zinc(II), ruthenium(II), rhenium(I), iridium(III), and platinum(IV), significantly enhance the efficacy of light-activated therapies, including photodynamic therapy (PDT) and photothermal therapy (PTT), as well as ultrasound-activated treatments like sonodynamic therapy (SDT). TMCNs based on ruthenium(II), rhenium(I), and iridium(III) improve PDT, while manganese(II) and iridium(III) demonstrate exceptional sonosensitizing properties.

Monensic acid is a natural polyether ionophore and is a therapeutic of first choice in veterinary medicine for the control of coccidiosis. Although known as a sodium-binding ligand, it can also form a variety of coordination species depending on experimental conditions applied. In this study, we present the crystal structures and properties of Co(II) and Mn(II) complexes of sodium monensinate (MonNa) derived from the reaction of MonNa with cobalt or manganese dinitrates.

To remediate surface water as the Doce River and spring waters from Minas Gerais, Brazil, this study examined the possibility of natural serpentinite mining tailings as a sustainable alternative for removing aluminum (III), iron (III), and manganese (II). The study used a Box-Behnken experimental design to examine how initial metal concentration, adsorbate dosage, and adsorption time affect metal removal effectiveness. Results demonstrated impressive performance, with removal rates exceeding 80 % for Al(III) and Fe(III) within the initial 5 min, and 60 % for Mn(II) within 30 min.
