説明

<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>A new (<jats:italic>N</jats:italic>‐phosphinoamidinate)manganese complex is shown to be a useful pre‐catalyst for the hydrosilative reduction of carbonyl compounds, and in most cases at room temperature. The Mn‐catalyzed reduction of tertiary amides to tertiary amines, with a useful scope, is demonstrated for the first time by use of this catalyst, and is competitive with the most effective transition‐metal catalysts known for such transformations. Ketones, aldehydes, and esters were also successfully reduced under mild conditions by using this new Mn catalyst.</jats:p>
