Alexander Léval, Henrik Junge, Matthias Beller
Abstract
This work updates the first non-phosphine-based Mn complex able to perform the formic acid dehydrogenation (FA DH) in the presence of amines. Significant improvements were achieved regarding TON (>7500), gas evolution (>20 L), and lower CO content.
