Abstract
The front cover picture, designed by L. Duarte de Almeida et al. illustrates the successful application of a well-defined manganese PNP pincer complex in the formal hydroamination of allylic alcohols with primary and secondary amines as well as with N-heterocycles. The corresponding γ-amino alcohols were obtained in up to 94% yield in a tandem reaction combining dehydrogenation/Michael addition/hydrogenation sequence. The properties of these non-innocent pincer ligands allowed application of this non-noble metal catalyst in organic synthesis with a broad substrate scope. Details can be found in the communication by M. Beller, K. Junge and co-workers (L. Duarte de Almeida, F. Bourriquen, K. Junge, M. Beller, Adv. Synth. Catal. 2021, 363, 4177–4181; DOI: 10.1002/adsc.202100081).
