The emerging field of organometallic catalysis has shifted towards research on Earth-
abundant transition metals due to their ready availability, economic advantage, and novel …

The reductive amination, the reaction of an aldehyde or a ketone with ammonia or an amine
in the presence of a reducing agent and often a catalyst, is an important amine synthesis …

Reductive aminations constitute an important class of reactions widely applied in research
laboratories and industries for the synthesis of amines as well as pharmaceuticals …

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

Manganese (I) complexes bearing a pyridyl-supported pyrazolyl-imidazolyl ligand efficiently
catalyzed the direct β-alkylation of secondary alcohols with primary alcohols under …

We introduce a highly active and chemoselective manganese catalyst for the hydrogenation
of imines. The catalyst has a large scope, can reduce aldimines and ketimines, and tolerates …

The production of primary amines with high efficiency and selectivity employing appropriate
catalysts is of central importance yet challenging. Here, we reported Ni nanoparticles …

A sustainable synthesis of quinazoline and 2-aminoquinoline via acceptorless
dehydrogenative annulation is presented. The reaction is catalyzed by earth-abundant well …

The direct α-methylation of ketones with methanol under hydrogen borrowing conditions
using a well-defined manganese PN3P complex as a pre-catalyst was, for the first time …

Deoxygenative hydrogenation of amides to amines homogeneously catalyzed by a complex
of an Earth-abundant metal is presented. This manganese-catalyzed reaction features high …
