{Reference Type}: Journal Article {Title}: Manganese-catalyzed C-C and C-N bond formation with alcohols via borrowing hydrogen or hydrogen auto-transfer. {Author}: Ansari MF;Maurya AK;Kumar A;Elangovan S; {Journal}: Beilstein J Org Chem {Volume}: 20 {Issue}: 0 {Year}: 2024 {Factor}: 2.544 {DOI}: 10.3762/bjoc.20.98 {Abstract}: Transition-metal-mediated "borrowing hydrogen" also known as hydrogen auto-transfer reactions allow the sustainable construction of C-C and C-N bonds using alcohols as hydrogen donors. In recent years, manganese complexes have been explored as efficient catalysts in these reactions. This review highlights the significant progress made in manganese-catalyzed C-C and C-N bond-formation reactions via hydrogen auto-transfer, emphasizing the importance of this methodology and manganese catalysts in sustainable synthesis strategies.
