New paper in @ChemicalScience. pubs.rsc.org/en/Content/Arti… Mn2(CO)10 is a versatile pre catalyst and here we use time-resolved IR spectroscopy, from ps through to mins, to understand how it is activated. Great working with @Ian_Fairlamb and @CLF_STFC as always @ChemistryatYork

The importance of understanding (pre)catalyst activation in versatile C–H bond functionalisations...

Mn-catalysed reactions offer great potential in synthetic organic and organometallic chemistry and the success of Mn carbonyl complexes as (pre)catalysts h
