Abstract

Herein, we describe the synthesis of a wide variety of imines through oxidative coupling of alcohols and aromatic amines catalyzed by Mn complexes bearing N^N triazole ligands. A wide variety of imines in excellent yields (up to 99%) have been prepared. Mn-based catalysts proved to be highly efficient and versatile, allowing for the first time the preparation of several imines containing N-based heterocycles.
