The absorption spectrum of aqueous manganese(III) is described in the presence and absence of added halide ions. Addition of fluoride to solutions containing aqueous manganese(III) causes a distinct splitting of the 5T2g ← 5Eg (in Oh) to occur. This is shown to be consistent with the formation of MnF2+, Mn3+ + F- = MnF2+ with K ? 106 at ~23°. Jahn-Teller effects are thought to influence the observed spectra.
