Introduction Click to copy section linkSection link copied! Organometallic catalysis plays an important role in industrial processes and promotes ongoing improvements in them. (1−4) Driven by sustainability, replacement of noble metals by more abundant and less expensive counterparts attracted significant attention in recent years. (5) Manganese, as the third most abundant transition metal in the Earth’s crust, emerged as a formidable player in homogeneous catalysis.
