Abstract

AbstractAcceptorless dehydrogenative coupling (ADC) has emerged as a powerful tool in the chemists’ arsenal for the construction of various carbon‐carbon and carbon‐heteroatom bonds. These protocols are highly atom economical and environmentally benign as they do not require pre‐functionalized starting material and produce only dihydrogen (and water) as the by‐product. This technique, coupled with Earths’ abundant and less toxic manganese catalysis, can prove to be a vital strategy for the generation of molecular complexity from simple starting materials. Manganese catalyzed DHC has been of growing interest, and various low‐ and high‐valent manganese catalysts have been developed. These catalysts were demonstrated to show excellent catalytic activity for the formation of carbon‐carbon, carbon‐heteroatom bonds, and cascade reactions. In this mini‐review, we would like to highlight the recent progress that has been made in manganese catalyzed ADC reactions.
