Even in solution only a single μ‐carboxylato bridge links the metal centers in complex 1 , according to EPR studies. This feature makes the complex an interesting structural model for the active center in enzymes that contain two manganese atoms. In D ‐xylose isomerase, for example, the manganese atoms are linked by a single bridging carboxylate(glutamate) residue.
