Selective hydrogenation of arenes and heteroarenes by manganese-based catalysts

在本项目范围内，将首次开发用于芳烃和杂芳烃加氢的锰催化剂。基于明确的Mn基配位聚合物和含锰MOF的合成，新的负载Mn纳米颗粒和Mn单原子催化剂（SAC）将被制备和表征（WP1）。这些材料在工作包2 （WP2）中用于芳烃和杂芳烃的氢化。在优化模型系统和机理研究（WP3）之后，计划了许多综合有趣的应用（WP4）。作为有趣的例子，这里将提到非对映选择性氢化（例如百里香酚）和使用多种芳香族化合物的化学选择性过程的发展。

Within the scope of this project manganese catalysts for the hydrogenation of aromatics and heteroaromatics are to be developed for the first time. Based on the well-defined synthesis of Mn-based coordination polymers and manganese-containing MOF's, new supported Mn nanoparticles and Mn-Single Atom Catalysts (SAC's) will be produced and characterized (WP1). These materials are used in work package 2 (WP2) for the hydrogenation of aromatics and heteroaromatics. After optimization of the model systems and mechanistic studies (WP3), a number of synthetically interesting applications are planned (WP4). As interesting examples, the development of diastereoselective hydrogenations (e.g. thymol) and chemoselective processes using multiple aromatic compounds will be mentioned here.
