Upside‐down push : Reaction of an Mn III corrolazine complex with H 2 O 2 or ROOH leads to OO‐bond cleavage to give an Mn V O complex (see scheme). Dramatic and unexpected axial‐ligand (or “push”) effects are observed, namely, the more electron‐poor the axial ligand L, the faster and more heterolytic the cleavage.
