Abstract
AbstractSelective reduction of esters to alcohols was accomplished through Mn(I)‐mediated hydrosilylation reaction. The manganese tricarbonyl complex [Mn(bis‐NHC)(CO)3Br] resulted an active pre‐catalyst for the reduction of a variety of esters using phenylsilane and the cheap and readily available polymethylhydrosiloxane. An in situ examination of the catalytic reaction using 55Mn NMR spectroscopy allowed us to detect the formation of Mn(I) intermediate active species.magnified image
