Liu, C. (author), van Putten, R. (author), Kulyaev, Pavel O. (author), Filonenko, G.A. (author), Pidko, E.A. (author)The reaction mechanism of ester hydrogenation catalyzed by a bidentate aminophosphine ligated manganese catalyst was studied by DFT calculations. Particular emphasize was placed on the role of the alkoxide base additives. The presence of such basic promoters as KO<sup>t</sup>Bu can improve the catalyst activity by lowering the activation...journal article 2018
