Methylcyclopentadienylmanganese Tricarbonyl (Cat No.:M063758) is an organometallic compound used as an octane-enhancing fuel additive. Composed of a manganese atom bonded to a cyclopentadienyl ligand with a methyl group, it forms a stable complex. MMT improves gasoline quality by reducing engine knock, enhancing combustion efficiency, and reducing emissions. Despite its benefits, MMT is controversial due to potential health and environmental concerns. While some studies suggest minimal risk under typical usage, others highlight potential neurological and respiratory effects.
