Scope and mechanism of nitrile dihydroboration mediated by a β-diketiminate manganese hydride catalyst

Chem. Commun., 2020, Accepted Manuscript DOI: 10.1039/C9CC09921B, CommunicationThao T. Nguyen, Jun-Hyeong Kim, Suyeon Kim, Changjin Oh, Marco Flores, Thomas L Groy, Mu-Hyun Baik, Ryan J. Trovitch The manganese hydride dimer, [(2,6-iPr2PhBDI)Mn( μ-H)]2, was found to mediate nitrile dihydroboration, rendering it the first manganese catalyst for this transformation. Stoichiometric experiments revealed that benzonitrile insertion affords [(2,6-iPr2PhBDI)Mn(μ-NCHC6H5)]2 en route... The content of this RSS Feed (c) The Royal Society of Chemistry
