Potassium hypomanganate, K3MnO4, also known as potassium manganate(V), is a bright blue salt and a rare example of a manganese(V) compound. It is formed:

MnO

+ SO2−

+ H2O MnO3−

+ SO2−

+ 2 H+
2 MnO2−
4
+ H2O2 + 2 OH 2 MnO3−
4
+ O2 + 2 H2O
  • by the reduction of potassium manganate with mandelate in 3–10 M potassium hydroxide solution;[1]

The hypomanganate anion is unstable with respect to disproportionation in all but the most alkaline of solutions:[2][3] estimated electrode potentials at pH 14 are[5][6][7]

MnO2−

+ e is in equilibrium with MnO3−

   E = +0.27 V
MnO3−
4
+ e + 2 H2O is in equilibrium with MnO2 + 4 OH   E = +0.96 V

The disproportionation is believed to pass through a protonated intermediate,[7] with the acid dissociation constant for the reaction HMnO2−
