For example, MnI complexes with 6,6′‐dihydroxy‐2,2′‐bipyridine ligand have been previously shown to be active catalysts for CO2 hydrogenation. In this work, simple bipyridine‐based Mn catalysts were developed that act as active catalysts for transfer hydrogenation of ketones, aldehydes and imines. For the first time, Mn‐catalyzed transfer hydrogenation of N ‐heterocycles was reported. The highest catalytic activity among complexes with variously substituted ligands was observed for the complex bearing two OH groups in bipyridine. Deuterium labeling experiments suggest a monohydride pathway.}, pages = {3844--3852}, title = {Transfer Hydrogenation of Carbonyl Groups, Imines and N‐Heterocycles Catalyzed by Simple, Bipyridine‐Based MnI Complexes}, volume = {11}, year = {2019} }
