摘要

Relaxation times of manganese(IV) complexes of mandelate, metformin, and sorbitol were measured at X-band from 4.2 to 70, 25, or 20 K, respectively. The Mn(IV) oxidation state was confirmed by chemical titrations. The X-band continuous wave and field-swept echo-detected spectra were simulated with |D| = 0.077 ± 0.004 cm−1, E = 0.0 for Mn(IV) mandelate, |D| = 0.30 ± 0.03 cm−1, E = 0.054 ± 0.007 cm−1 for Mn(IV)metformin, and |D| = 0.37 ± 0.007 cm−1, E = 0.070 ± 0.001 cm−1 for Mn(IV)sorbitol. The relaxation rates (1/Tm and 1/T1) increase with increasing zero-field splitting. Empirical modeling of the temperature dependence of T1 at temperatures above about 10 K is consistent with a Raman process.
