Abstract
We report on the isolation of a new family of μ-carboxylato-bridged metallocrown (MC) compounds by self-assembly of the recently isolated hexadentate tris(2-pyridylmethyl)amine ligand tpada2- incorporating two carboxylate units with metal cations. Twelve-membered MCs of manganese of the type 12-MC-3, namely, [{MnII(tpada)}3(M)(H2O)n]2+ (Mn3M) (M = Mn2+ (n = 0), Ca2+ (n = 1), or Sr2+ (n = 2)), were structurally characterized. The metallamacrocycles connectivity consisting in three -[Mn-O-C-O]- repeating units is provided by one carboxylate unit of the three tpada2- ligands, while the second carboxylate coordinated a fourth cation in the central cavity of the MC, Mn2+ or an alkaline earth metal, Ca2+ or Sr2+. Mn3Ca and {Mn3Sr}2 join the small family of heterometallic manganese-calcium complexes and even rarer manganese-strontium complexes as models of the OEC of photosystem II (PSII). A 8-MC-4 of strontium of the molecular wheel type with four -[Sr-O]- repeating unit was also isolated by self-assembly of the tpada2- ligand with Sr2+. This complex, namely, [Sr(tpada)(OH2)]4 (Sr4), does not incorporate any cation in the central cavity but instead four water molecules coordinated to each Sr2+. Electrochemical investigations coupled to UV-visible absorption and EPR spectroscopies as well as electrospray mass spectrometry reveal the stability of the 12-MC-3 tetranuclear structures in solution, both in the initial oxidation state, MnII3M, as well as in the three-electrons oxidized state, MnIII3M. Indeed, the cyclic voltammogram of all these complexes exhibits three-successive reversible oxidation waves between +0.5 and +0.9 V corresponding to the successive one-electron oxidation of the Mn(II) ion into Mn(III) of the three {Mn(tpada)} units constituting the ring, which are fully maintained after bulk electrolysis.

Abstract
Trivalent bismuth is a unique heavy p-block ion. It is highly insoluble in water, due to strong hydrolysis tendencies, and known for low toxicity. Its lone pair is structure-directing, providing framework materials with structural flexibility, leading to piezoelectric and multiferroic function. The flexibility it provides is also advantageous for dopants and vacancies, giving rise to conductivity, luminescence, color, and catalytic properties. We are exploiting Bi3+ in a completely different way, as a knob to "tune" the solubility and stability of transition-metal oxo clusters. The lone pair allows capping and isolation of metastable cluster forms for solid-state and solution characterization. With controlled release of the bismuth (via bismuth oxyhalide metathesis), the metal oxo clusters can be retained in aqueous solution, and we can track their reaction pathways and conversion to related metal oxyhydroxides. Here we present isolation of a bismuth-stabilized MnIV cluster, fully formulated [MnIV6Bi2KO9(CH3COO)10(H2O)3(NO3)2] (Mn6Bi2). In addition to characterization by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, solution characterization in acetonitrile and acetonitrile-acetic acid by small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry shows high stability and the tendency of Mn6Bi2 to link into chains by bridging the bismuth (and potassium) caps with nitrate and acetate ligands. On the other hand, the dissolution of Mn6Bi2 in water, with and without metathesis of the bismuth, leads to the precipitation of related oxyhydroxide phases, which we characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), electron diffraction, and energy-dispersive spectroscopy, and the conversion pathway by SAXS. Without removal of bismuth, amorphous manganese/bismuth oxyhydroxides precipitate within a day. On the other hand, metathesis of BiOBr yields a solution containing soluble manganese oxyhydroxide prenucleation clusters that assemble and precipitate over 10 days. This allows tracking of the reaction pathway via SAXS. We observe one-dimensional growth of species, followed by the precipitation of nanocrystalline hollandite (identified by TEM). The hollandite is presumably templated by the K+, originally in the crystalline lattice of Mn6Bi2. In this Forum Article that combines new results and prospective, we compare these results to prior studies in which we first introduced the use of capping Bi3+ to stabilize reactive clusters, followed by destabilization to understand reaction pathways in synthesis and low-temperature geochemistry.

Abstract
The natural Mn4 Ca cluster in photosystem II serves as a blueprint to develop artificial water-splitting catalysts for the generation of solar fuel in artificial photosynthesis. Although significant advances have recently been achieved, it remains a great challenge to prepare robust artificial Mn4 Ca clusters that precisely mimic the structure and function of the biological catalyst. Herein, we report the isolation and structural characterization of two Mn4 CaO4 complexes with polar solvent molecules, acetonitrile or N,N-dimethylformamide, which closely mimics the two water molecules on the calcium ion, as well as the oxidation states of the four manganese ions and the main geometric structure of the natural Mn4 Ca cluster. These new artificial Mn4 Ca complexes provide important chemical clues to understand the structure and mechanism of the biological system.
