Non-noble metal-catalysed carbonylative transformations

Abstract

Transition metal catalysts are formidable tools towards greener chemistry, allowing for low-waste, energy-efficient, and selective reactions. And transition metal-catalysed carbonylation procedures are powerful methodologies for producing carbonyl-containing compounds. The existing reviews/chapters/books are mainly focused on noble metal (Ru, Rh, Ir, Pd, Pt) catalysed carbonylation reactions. In this review, achievements on non-noble metal (Mn, Fe, Cu, Co, Ni) catalysed carbonylative transformations have been summarized and discussed.
