7783-53-1[F][Mn]([F])[F]SRVINXWCFNHIQZ-UHFFFAOYSA-KManganese trifluoride is a fluoride of manganese. Manganese is a naturally occurring metal with the symbol Mn and the atomic number 25. It does not occur naturally in its pure form, but is found in many types of rocks in combination with other substances such as oxygen, sulfur, or chlorine. Manganese occurs naturally in most foods and small amounts are needed to stay healthy, as manganese ions act as cofactors for a number of enzymes. (L228, L229)

Manganese is absorbed mainly via ingestion, but can also be inhaled. It binds to alpha-2-macroglobulin, albumin, or transferrin in the plasma and is distributed to the brain and all other mammalian tissues, though it tends to accumulate more in the liver, pancreas, and kidney. Manganese is capable of existing in a number of oxidation states and is believed to undergo changes in oxidation state within the body. Manganese oxidation state can influence tissue toxicokinetic behavior, and possibly toxicity. Manganese is excreted primarily in the faeces. (L228)
DescriptionThe manganese fluoride, MnF3, is preferably formed by fluorination of manganese(III) iodide. It is a solid, and although its decomposition pressure is lower than 10.1325kPa (0.1 atmosphere) at 600°C, fluorine is still released when heated. It is a strong fluorinating agent, which acts with sulfur, boron, silicon, carbon, phosphorus trichloride and carbon tetrachloride when heated. It is used to fluoride gaseous hydrocarbons.
UsesIt is used as a fluorinating agent, useful for conversion of hydrocarbons into fluorocarbons. It is used in organic synthesis as Lewis acid to prepare a number of organic compounds.
UsesFluorinating agent in organic chemistry.
General DescriptionManganese(III) fluoride (also known as manganese trifluoride), MnF3, is a red/purplish solid useful for converting hydrocarbons into fluorocarbons, that is, it is a fluorination agent. It forms a hydrate and numerous derivatives. MnF3 can be produced by reacting a solution of MnF2 in hydrogen fluoride with fluorine.

EYES: irrigate opened eyes for several minutes under running water. INGESTION: do not induce vomiting. Rinse mouth with water (never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person). Seek immediate medical advice. SKIN: should be treated immediately by rinsing the affected parts in cold running water for at least 15 minutes, followed by thorough washing with soap and water. If necessary, the person should shower and change contaminated clothing and shoes, and then must seek medical attention. INHALATION: supply fresh air. If required provide artificial respiration.
Manganese mainly affects the nervous system and may cause behavioral changes and other nervous system effects, which include movements that may become slow and clumsy. This combination of symptoms when sufficiently severe is referred to as “manganism”. (L228)
Manganese is a cellular toxicant that can impair transport systems, enzyme activities, and receptor functions. It primarily targets the central nervous system, particularily the globus pallidus of the basal ganglia. It is believed that the manganese ion, Mn(II), enhances the autoxidation or turnover of various intracellular catecholamines, leading to increased production of free radicals, reactive oxygen species, and other cytotoxic metabolites, along with a depletion of cellular antioxidant defense mechanisms, leading to oxidative damage and selective destruction of dopaminergic neurons. In addition to dopamine, manganese is thought to perturbations other neurotransmitters, such as GABA and glutamate. In order to produce oxidative damage, manganese must first overwhelm the antioxidant enzyme manganese superoxide dismutase. The neurotoxicity of Mn(II) has also been linked to its ability to substitute for Ca(II) under physiological conditions. It can enter mitochondria via the calcium uniporter and inhibit mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation. It may also inhibit the efflux of Ca(II), which can result in a loss of mitochondrial membrane integrity. Mn(II) has been shown to inhibit mitochondrial aconitase activity to a significant level, altering amino acid metabolism and cellular iron homeostasis. (L228)
