Abstract
Unprecedented direct acceptorless
dehydrogenation of C–C
single bonds adjacent to functional groups to form α,β-unsaturated
compounds has been accomplished by using a new class of group 9 metal
complexes. Metal–ligand cooperation operated by the hydroxycyclopentadienyl
ligand was proposed to play a major role in the catalytic transformation
