    A Stable Manganese Pincer Catalyst for the Selective Dehydrogenation of Methanol
    (Weinheim : Wiley-VCH, 2016-12-2) Andérez-Fernández, María; Vogt, Lydia K.; Fischer, Steffen; Zhou, Wei; Jiao, Haijun; Garbe, Marcel; Elangovan, Saravanakumar; Junge, Kathrin; Junge, Henrik; Ludwig, Ralf; Beller, Matthias
    For the first time, structurally defined manganese pincer complexes catalyze the dehydrogenation of aqueous methanol to hydrogen and carbon dioxide, which is a transformation of interest with regard to the implementation of a hydrogen and methanol economy. Excellent long-term stability was demonstrated for the Mn-PNPiPr catalyst, as a turnover of more than 20 000 was reached. In addition to methanol, other important hydrogen carriers were also successfully dehydrogenated.

    Efficient and selective hydrogenation of amides to alcohols and amines using a well-defined manganese-PNN pincer complex
    (Cambridge : RSC, 2017) Papa, Veronica; Cabrero-Antonino, Jose R.; Alberico, Elisabetta; Spanneberg, Anke; Junge, Kathrin; Junge, Henrik; Beller, Matthias
    Novel well-defined NNP and PNP manganese pincer complexes have been synthetized and fully characterized. The catalyst Mn-2 containing an imidazolyaminolphosphino ligand shows high activity and selectivity in the hydrogenation of a wide range of secondary and tertiary amides to the corresponding alcohols and amines, under relatively mild conditions. For the first time, more challenging substrates like primary aromatic amides including an actual herbicide can also be hydrogenated using this earth-abundant metal-based pincer catalyst.

    Cobalt-Catalyzed Aqueous Dehydrogenation of Formic Acid
    (Weinheim : Wiley-VCH, 2019) Zhou, Wei; Wei, Zhihong; Spannenberg, Anke; Jiao, Haijun; Junge, Kathrin; Junge, Henrik; Beller, Matthias
    Among the known liquid organic hydrogen carriers, formic acid attracts increasing interest in the context of safe and reversible storage of hydrogen. Here, the first molecularly defined cobalt pincer complex is disclosed for the dehydrogenation of formic acid in aqueous medium under mild conditions. Crucial for catalytic activity is the use of the specific complex 3. Compared to related ruthenium and manganese complexes 7 and 8, this optimal cobalt complex showed improved performance. DFT computations support an innocent non-classical bifunctional outer-sphere mechanism on the triplet state potential energy surface. © 2019 The Authors. Published by Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

    Towards a general ruthenium-catalyzed hydrogenation of secondary and tertiary amides to amines
    (Cambridge : RSC, 2016) Cabrero-Antonino, Jose R.; Alberico, Elisabetta; Junge, Kathrin; Junge, Henrik; Beller, Matthias
    A broad range of secondary and tertiary amides has been hydrogenated to the corresponding amines under mild conditions using an in situ catalyst generated by combining [Ru(acac)3], 1,1,1-tris(diphenylphosphinomethyl)ethane (Triphos) and Yb(OTf)3. The presence of the metal triflate allows to mitigate reaction conditions compared to previous reports thus improving yields and selectivities in the desired amines. The excellent isolated yields of two scale-up experiments corroborate the feasibility of the reaction protocol. Control experiments indicate that, after the initial reduction of the amide carbonyl group, the reaction proceeds through the reductive amination of the alcohol with the amine arising from collapse of the intermediate hemiaminal.
