Homogeneous Catalysis by Cobalt and Manganese Pincer Complexes

TL;DR: In this paper, a review of recent progress in the field of homogeneously catalyzed reactions using pincer-type complexes of cobalt and manganese is presented, including acceptorless dehydrogenation, hydrogenation, dehydrogenative coupling, hydrogen borrowing, hydrogen transfer, H-X additions, C-C coupling, alkene polymerization and N2 fixation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Manganese-Catalyzed Environmentally Benign Dehydrogenative Coupling of Alcohols and Amines to Form Aldimines and H2: A Catalytic and Mechanistic Study.

TL;DR: This work presents the dehydrogenative coupling of alcohols and amines to form imines and H2 that is catalyzed, for the first time, by a complex of the earth-abundant Mn.
Journal ArticleDOI

Selective Hydrogenation of Nitriles to Primary Amines Catalyzed by a Cobalt Pincer Complex.

TL;DR: Several (hetero)aromatic, benzylic, and aliphatic nitriles undergo hydrogenation to the corresponding primary amines in good to excellent yields under the reaction conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cobalt‐Catalyzed Hydrogenation of Esters to Alcohols: Unexpected Reactivity Trend Indicates Ester Enolate Intermediacy

TL;DR: This is the first cobalt-catalyzed hydrogenation of esters to the corresponding alcohols, and the evidence indicates the unprecedented involvement of ester enolate intermediates.
