Rapidly emerging application of organometallic manganese complexes incorporating less
elaborated mono-and bidentate donor ligands in catalytic hydrogenation, transfer …

Herein, we report a simple, phosphine-free, and inexpensive catalytic system based on a
manganese (II) complex for synthesizing different important N-heterocycles such as …

The β-alkylation of secondary alcohols has been successfully accomplished using earth
abundant, inexpensive and environmentally benign 3d transition metal chromium salt CrCl3 …

Conversion of readily available feedstocks to valuable platform chemicals via an eco-
friendly catalytic pathway has always been one of the key focuses of synthetic chemists. In …

Alcohols are abundant and attractive feedstock molecules for organic synthesis. Many
methods for their functionalization require them to first be converted into a more activated …

A series of manganese carbonyl complexes based on bis (imino) pyridine ligands of the type
R2NNN (R= Cy, i Pr, Ph, p-FC6H4) were synthesized. While the complex appears to be an …

Herein, we report a straightforward synthesis of valuable α‐hydroxycarboxylic acid
molecules via an acceptorless dehydrogenative coupling of ethylene glycol and primary …

This review highlights the most recent reports in three powerful and ever-growing fields of
borrowing hydrogen, acceptorless dehydrogenative coupling, and base-mediated hydride …

Metal–ligand cooperation, in which both the metal and the ligand of a transition metal
complex actively participate in chemical transformations leading to enhanced reactivity or …
