Manganese(II) nitrate Manganese(II) nitrate Manganese(II) nitrate are the inorganic compounds with formula Mn(NO)(HO). Each formula unit is composed of one Mn cation and two NO anions and varying amounts of water. Most common is the tetrahydrate Mn(NO)·4HO, but mono- and hexahydrates are also known as well as the anhydrous compound. Some of these compounds are useful precursors to the oxides of manganese. Manganese(II) nitrate is prepared by dissolving manganese(II) oxide in nitric acid: It can also be prepared from manganese dioxide and nitrogen dioxide: On heating to 300 °C, aqueous solutions of manganese(II) nitrate thermally decompose to form MnO and NO.

Manganese peroxidase the presence of O, can oxidize lignin or react with water to form HO. The Mn3+ ion itself can degrade lignin by catalyzing alkyl-aryl cleavages and α-carbon oxidation in phenols. MnP activity is controlled via transcriptional regulation. MnP is up-regulated by increases in extracellular Mn(II) and HO concentrations. It has been found that increased O concentration and heat stress also activate MnP. Manganese peroxidase In enzymology, a manganese peroxidase () is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction The 3 substrates of this enzyme are Mn(II), H, and HO, whereas its two products are Mn(III) and HO. This enzyme belongs
