The sustainable use of the resources on our planet is essential. Noble metals are very rare and are diversely used in key technologies, such as catalysis. Manganese is the third most abundant transition metal of the Earth's crust and based on the recently discovered impressive reactivity in hydrogenation and dehydrogenation reactions, is a potentially useful noble-metal "replacement". The hope of novel selectivity profiles, not possible with noble metals, is also an aim of such a "replacement". The reactivity of manganese complexes in (de)hydrogenation reactions was demonstrated for the first time in 2016. Herein, we summarize the work that has been published since then and especially discuss the importance of homogeneous manganese catalysts in comparison to cobalt and iron catalysts.
可持续利用我们星球上的资源至关重要。贵金属非常稀有，广泛应用于关键技术中，例如催化。锰是地壳中第三丰富的过渡金属，并且基于最近发现的在加氢和脱氢反应中令人印象深刻的反应性，是一种潜在有用的贵金属“替代品”。具有新型选择性的可能性，这是贵金属所不能实现的，也是这种“替代品”的目标之一。锰配合物在（脱氢）反应中的反应性于 2016 年首次得到证明。在此，我们总结了自那时以来发表的工作，并特别讨论了与钴和铁催化剂相比，均相锰催化剂的重要性。
