A SHORT REVIEW ON POLYVINYLPYRIDINE AND MANGANESE BASED COMPLEXES AS EFFICIENT CATALYSTS IN ORGANIC SYNTHESIS

Abstract

Manganese and polyvinylpyridine-based complexes have been shown to be effective catalysts for many catalytic reactions. These catalysts carry out oxidation with very high efficiency, while activating the C-H groups and easily eliminating their internal reactivity. Although many manganese and polyvinylpyridine-based catalysts have significant activity, their application, as well as attempts to increase their synthetic potential, have not yet been developed. To this end, we reviewed studies on manganese and polyvinylpyridine-based catalysts to increase their application in many chemical reactions, such as the oxidation of n-alkanes, alcohols, and olefins, and hope that our brief review will lead to the development of new organic synthesis of Mn/polyvinylpyridine-based catalysts.
