This is the second reported example of alkene hydrogenation catalyzed by a Mn complex. Mechanistic studies showed that a Mn hydride formed by H2 activation in the presence of a base is the catalytically active species. Based on experimental and DFT studies, H2 splitting is proposed to occur via a metal‐ligand cooperative pathway involving deprotonation of the CH2 arm of the ligand, leading to pyridine dearomatization.}, pages = {5912--5918}, title = {Hydrogenation of Alkenes Catalyzed by a Non‐pincer Mn Complex}, volume = {12}, year = {2020} }
