Reductive functionalization of the C=O unit in carboxylic acids, carbonic acid derivatives, and ultimately carbon dioxide itself is a challenging task key importance for synthesis value-added chemicals. In particular, it can open novel pathways valorization non-fossil feedstocks. Catalysts based on earth-abundant, cheap, benign metals would greatly contribute to development sustainable synthetic processes derived from this concept. Herein, manganese pincer complex [Mn(Ph2PCH2SiMe2)2NH(CO)2Br] (1) reported enable reduction broad range carbonates, even CO2 using pinacolborane as reducing agent. The shown operate under mild reaction conditions (80-120 °C), low catalyst loadings (0.1-0.2 mol%) runs solvent-less conditions. Mechanistic studies including crystallographic characterisation borane adduct imply that metal-ligand cooperation facilitates substrate activation.

Manganese Catalyzed Hydrogenation of Carbamates and Urea Derivatives

Journal of the American Chemical Society, Год журнала: 2019, Номер 141(33), С. 12962 - 12966

Опубликована: Июль 31, 2019

We report the hydrogenation of carbamates and urea derivatives, two most challenging carbonyl compounds to be hydrogenated, catalyzed for first time by a complex an earth-abundant metal. The reaction these CO2-derived compounds, manganese pincer complex, yields methanol in addition amine alcohol, which makes this methodology sustainable alternative route conversion CO2 methanol, involving base-metal catalyst. Moreover, proceeds under mild pressure (20 bar). Our observations support mechanism Mn–H complex. A plausible catalytic cycle is proposed based on informative mechanistic experiments.
