Original Kurzfassung:
Leading a double life: A manganese corrole complex has been shown to serve as a bifunctional catalyst for the electrocatalytic generation of dioxygen and reduction of dioxygen in aqueous solution. The complex oxidizes hydroxide ions to molecular oxygen through a four-electron process in weak to moderate alkaline conditions and reduces O2 in a two-electron process to hydrogen peroxide.
