Manganese-Catalyzed Upgrading of Ethanol into 1-Butanol
Abstract
Biomass-derived ethanol is an important renewable feedstock. Its conversion into high-quality biofuels is a promising route to replace fossil resources. Herein, an efficient manganese-catalyzed Guerbet-type condensation reaction of ethanol to form 1-butanol was explored. This is the first example of upgrading ethanol into higher alcohols using a homogeneous non-noble-metal catalyst. This process proceeded selectively in the presence of a well-defined manganese pincer complex at the parts per million (ppm) level. The developed reaction represents a sustainable synthesis of 1-butanol with excellent turnover number (>110 000) and turnover frequency (>3000 h –1 ). Moreover, mechanistic studies including control experiments, NMR spectroscopy, and X-ray crystallography identified the essential role of the “N–H moiety” of the manganese catalysts and the major reaction intermediates related to the catalytic cycle.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
