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

2 MnO2 + 3 OH− → MnO3−
4 + MnOOH + H2O

The compound is unstable due to the tendency of the hypomanganate anion to disproportionate in all but the most alkaline solutions.[2][3]
