Catalytic acceptorless dehydrogenation of alcohols using cobalt(<scp>i</scp>) pincer complexes supported by a P–GeH–P ligand
We report a novel P-GeH-P pincer ligand and its cobalt(I) complex, which catalyzes the acceptorless dehydrogenation of alcohols. The Ge-Co complex, featuring a reactive Ge-H bond, shows distinct catalytic properties compared to silicon-based analogues. Moreover, the complex enables the one-pot synthesis of 2-quinolone derivatives, highlighting its potential in organic synthesis.
