a very simple and inexpensive catalytic system based on Earth's abundant transition metalmanganese and on a bench‐stable phosphine‐free NNN‐pincer ligand for an atom‐efficient α‐alkylations of ketones with primary alcohols via hydrogen‐autotransfer C−C bond formation protocol. The precatalyst could be generated in situ and could be activated by using catalyticamount of base under milder conditions

Undermildconditions (room temperature, 80 psi of H2) Cp*Rh(2-(2-pyridyl)phenyl)H catalyzes the selectivehydrogenation of the C═C bond in α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds, including natural product precursors with bulky substituents in the β position and substrates possessing an array of additional functionalgroups. It also catalyzes the hydrogenation of many isolated double bonds. Mechanistic
在温和条件下(室温,80 psi H 2)Cp*Rh(2-(2-吡啶基)苯基)H催化α,β-不饱和羰基化合物(包括天然产物前体)中C=C键的选择性氢化在 β 位具有庞大的取代基,并且底物具有一系列额外的官能团。它还催化许多分离的双键的氢化。机理研究表明,不涉及自由基中间体,并且催化剂似乎是均相的,从而为类似氢化过程的现有方案提供了重要的互补性。
Acridine-Based SNS–Ruthenium Pincer Complex-Catalyzed Borrowing Hydrogen-Mediated C–C Alkylation Reaction: Application to the Guerbet Reaction
SNS-based ruthenium pincer catalysts were applied in a Guerbet condensation reaction of primary alcohols to give β-alkylated dimeric alcohols in good yields. The ability of these complexes to convert ethanol into butanol was also investigated. The work was then extended toward the C-alkylation of secondary alcohols with primary alcohols to give α-alkylated ketones. Several control experiments showed
