Scientists uncover a hidden power in a common metal

Researchers developed a powerful new manganese complex that could revolutionize light-driven chemical reactions. It absorbs light extremely efficiently, has a uniquely long excited-state lifetime, and is far easier to synthesize than previous manganese systems. The team confirmed it successfully transfers electrons as intended. This breakthrough could enable large-scale, sustainable photochemical applications.
