TL;DR
This paper explores how manganese complexes immobilized in a Nafion layer on a carbon electrode can electrocatalytically oxidize certain model compounds.
Contribution
The study introduces new insights into the electrochemical behavior and catalytic activity of immobilized manganese complexes in Nafion films.
Findings
Manganese complexes oxidize to form di-μ-oxo complexes of Mn3+ and Mn4+.
Nafion influences the oxidation mechanism and stability of the complexes.

Abstract
Modified electrodes were obtained by immobilizing Mn3+ complexes with the following tetraazamacrocycles (1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane ([12]aneN4), 1,4,8,11-tetrazacyclotetradecane ([14]aneN4), 1,4,7,11-tetrazacyclotetradecane (iso[14]aneN4), and 1,4,8,12-tetrazacyclopentadecane ([15]aneN4) in a Nafion film on the surface of a glassy carbon electrode (GCE). Based on spectroelectrochemical, chronopotentiometric, and chronoamperometric studies, oxidation of mononuclear complexes to dinuclear di-μ-oxo complexes of Mn3+ and Mn4+ was observed, and the mechanism and influence of Nafion on this process were determined. On the basis of voltammetric and chronocoulometric studies, the electroactivity, stability, and diffusion rates of such modified electrodes were demonstrated. Based on voltammetric and chronocoulometric studies, their electrocatalytic properties were analyzed in relation to the…
