Abstract:To reveal reaction mechanism of PS-II, the reaction products of photolysis may be compared with their thermolytic products. According to required molecular assemblies in manganese clusters at WOC of PS-II, we have strategically synthesized dimers (M-1, M-2), trimers (M-3A, M-3B) and tetramer (M-4) using spin carrier imino-phenol functionalized ligands viz. Lawsone Oxime (L-1) and Phthiocol Oxime (L-2) of naturally occurring quinones .These are characterized by elemental analyses, thermogravimetric analyses, differential thermal analyses, powder X-ray diffraction and infrared spectroscopy. Stabilization energies for molecular associations of ligands in various redox and stereoisomeric forms via hydrogen bondings are compared with thermal energies required for their expulsion from the coordination polymers calculated with the help of Coats and Redfern’s relation of rising temperatures. Activation energy required for establishing tetramer (M-4) and dimer (M-2) in coordination sphere by counter ion using same synthetic route is found to be comparable (~37.48±1 kJ mol-1). Quantitized energies from TG-DTA data for valence tautomers of redox active ligands play significant role in formation of resultant model compound. viz. tetramer, dimer of dimer and trimer. The role of oxo, acetato and spin carrier ligands in model cluster compounds are proposed with respect to their expulsion energies.
