We disclose the synthesis of a series of manganese complexes of chiral iminopyridine oxazoline ligands and their application in the first manganese-catalyzed asymmetric ketone hydrosilylations. The most sterically hindered manganese catalyst bearing two CH(Ph)<sub>2</sub> groups at the 2,6-ortho positions of the imino aryl ring and a <i>t</i>Bu group on the oxazoline ring furnishes the secondary alcohols in high enantioselectivities and yields. ...[more]
