A highly selective hydrogenation of alkynesusing an air-stable and readily available manganese catalyst has been achieved. The reaction proceeds under mild reaction conditions and tolerates various functional groups, resulting in (Z)-alkenes and allylic alcohols in high yields. Mechanistic experiments suggest that the reaction proceeds via a bifunctional activation involving metal–ligand cooperativity

iridium-catalyzed semihydrogenation of alkynes to E- and Z-alkenes with ethanol was developed. Effective selectivity control was achieved by ligand regulation. The use of 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane (DPPE) and 1,5-cyclooctadiene (COD) was critical for the stereoselective semihydrogenation of alkynes. The general applicability of this procedure was highlighted by the synthesis of more than 40 alkenes, with

unprecedented manganese-catalyzed semihydrogenation of internal alkynes to (Z)-alkenes using ammonia borane as a hydrogen donor. The reaction is catalyzed by a pincer complex of the earth-abundant manganese(II) salt in the absence of any additives, base, or superhydride. The ammonia borane smoothly reduces the manganese precatalyst [Mn(II)–PNP][Cl]2 to the catalytically activespecies [Mn(I)–PNP]–hydride in the

The ability of quantumdots (QDs) to photocatalyze organic reactions is gaining attention because of their distinct light harvesting properties over traditional precious metal- and small molecule-based catalysts. However, establishing the potency of QD photocatalysts in diverse and useful organic transformations, as well as deciphering the charge transfer mechanism, is essential to cement their place

Foam catalyst: Commercially available nickel foam is an excellent catalyst for the electrochemical semihydrogenation/semideuteration of functionalized alkynes in diluted sulfuric acid under ambient conditions. Here, the applicability of this catalyst for the stereoselective synthesis of Z-alkenes and Z-alkenes-d2 is presented. The nickel foam is recyclable up to 14 times without losing its catalytic
