Identifying surface active intermediate species is essential to reveal the catalytic mechanism of water oxidation by metal-oxides-based catalysts and to develop more efficient catalysts for oxygen-oxygen bond formation. Here we report, through electrochemical methods and ex situ infrared spectroscopy, the identification of a Mn<sup>VII</sup> = O intermediate during catalytic water oxidation by a c-disordered δ-MnO<sub>x</sub> with an onset-potential-dependent reduction peak at 0.93 V and an infr ...[more]
