Homogeneous catalysis of organic transformations by metal complexes has been mostly based on complexes of noble metals. In recent years, tremendous progress has been made in the field of base-metal catalysis, mostly with pincer-type complexes, such as iron, cobalt, nickel, and manganese pincer systems. Particularly impressive is the explosive growth in the catalysis by Mn-based pincer complexes, the first such complexes being reported as recently as 2016. This review covers recent progress in the field of homogeneously catalyzed reactions using pincer-type complexes of cobalt and manganese. Various reactions are described, including acceptorless dehydrogenation, hydrogenation, dehydrogenative coupling, hydrogen borrowing, hydrogen transfer, H-X additions, C-C coupling, alkene polymerization and N-2 fixation, including their scope and brief mechanistic comments.
