Transition‐metal‐catalyzed C‐alkylation of ketones and secondary alcohols, with alcohols,
avoids use of organometallic or environmentally unfriendly alkylating agents by means of …

This review deals with the application of ruthenium and osmium complexes in Csingle
bondC bond-forming reactions by borrowing hydrogen (BH) or hydrogen autotransfer (HA) …

The development of heterogeneous catalysts for green chemical synthesis is a growing area
in catalysis and green-sustainable chemistry. This review summarizes recent examples of …

Herein, a phosphine-free pincer ruthenium (III) catalyzed β-alkylation of secondary alcohols
with primary alcohols to α-alkylated ketones and two different secondary alcohols to β …

Herein, an unprecedented ruthenium (II) catalyzed direct cross-coupling of two different
secondary alcohols to β-disubstituted ketones is reported. Cyclic, acylic, symmetrical, and …

Metal–ligand cooperation (MLC) plays an important role in catalysis. Systems reported so far
are generally based on a single mode of MLC. We report here a system with potential for …

The borrowing hydrogen methodology allows for the use of alcohols as alkylating agents for
C C bond forming processes offering significant environmental benefits over traditional …

N-Heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) as a new class of ligands for the stabilization of catalytic
metal complexes for catalytic water splitting are discussed. An overview over current …

Owing to the importance of amine/amide derivatives in all fields of chemistry, and also the
green and environmentally benign features of using alcohols as alkylating reagents, the …

The first example of a manganese (III) catalyst for the acceptorless dehydrogenation of
alcohols is presented. N, N′-Bis (salicylidene)-1, 2-cyclohexanediaminomanganese (III) …
