Description
Fluoride transitional metal ion complexes have several applications in catalysis, material science, due to their unique properties and reactivity. In this work we present the synthesis and structural analysis of two fluoro-manganese (III) complexes obtained with hydrogen difluoride ion, a special fluorinating agent. The compounds show a combination of strong hydrogen bonds (as provided by hydrogen difluoride ion) and coordinative covalent bonds. Understanding the coordination chemistry of fluoride transition metal complexes helps in elucidating fundamental principles of coordination chemistry and metal-ligand interactions, contributing to the development of new coordination compounds with tailored properties.
