Manganese-Catalyzed Asymmetric Hydrogenation of α-Substituted Tetralones via Dynamic Kinetic Resolution.

Developing earth-abundant metal catalysts as alternatives to precious metals is highly appealing for asymmetric hydrogenation. However, low enantioselectivity and activity remain critical challenges. Herein, we disclose an efficient manganese-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of α-substituted tetralones via dynamic ki...
