In this paper, several Mn(I) complexes were applied as catalysts for the homogeneous hydrogenation of ketones. The most active precatalyst is the bench-stable alkyl bisphosphine Mn(I) complex <i>fac</i>-[Mn(dippe) (CO)<sub>3</sub>(CH<sub>2</sub>CH<sub>2</sub>CH<sub>3</sub>)]. The reaction proceeds at room temperature under base-free conditions with a catalyst loading of 3 mol % and a hydrogen pressure of 10 bar. A temperature-dependent selectivity for the reduction of α,β-unsaturated carbonyls w ...[more]
