Patent ID: 6953763

Claim:
A method of producing stabilized Mn(VII), the method comprising the steps of: adding a selected solid support material to Mn(II) in solution; allowing Mn(IV) or Mn(III) oxide to form from the Mn(II) in the above solution; precipitating the Mn(IV) or Mn(III) from the above Mn(II) solution onto the solid support material and drying the resulting product to produce a supported Mn(IV) or Mn(III) material; reacting the supported Mn(IV) or Mn(III) material with an amine to form solid supported Mn(VII), the amine having the general formula R(NH 2 ) n , representing a mono- or multi-amine-substituting organic compound where n≧ 1, and R=an alkyl or arylorganic moiety.
