In chemistry, hypomanganate, also called manganate(V) or tetraoxidomanganate(3−), is a trivalent anion (negative ion) composed of manganese and oxygen, with formula MnO3−
4.
Hypomanganates are usually bright blue.[1][2] Potassium hypomanganate K
3MnO
4 is the best known salt, but sodium hypomanganate Na
3MnO
4, barium hypomanganate Ba
3(MnO
4)
2, and the mixed potassium-barium salt KBaMnO
4 is also known.[3] The anion can replace phosphate PO3−
4 in synthetic variants of the minerals apatite[4][5] and brownmillerite.[6]
