A Mn(iv) complex featuring a terminal oxo ligand, [Mn<sup>IV</sup>(O)(ditox)<sub>3</sub>][K(15-C-5)<sub>2</sub>] (<b>3</b>; ditox = <sup><i>t</i></sup> Bu<sub>2</sub>MeCO<sup>-</sup>, 15-C-5 = 15-crown-5-ether) has been isolated and structurally characterized. Treatment of the colorless precursor [Mn<sup>II</sup>(ditox)<sub>3</sub>][K(15-C-5)<sub>2</sub>] (<b>2</b>) with iodosobenzene affords <b>3</b> as a green free-flowing powder in high yields. The X-ray crystal structure of <b>3</b> reveals ...[more]
