A manganese pincer complex catalyzes a dehydrogenative coupling of diols and
amines to form cyclic imides. The reaction forms hydrogen gas as the sole
byproduct, making the overall process atom economical and environmentally benign.

derivatives has been developed by using inexpensive and readily available
reagents under mild conditions.

from the corresponding anhydrides uses TaCl5-silica gel as Lewis acid
under microwave irradiation.
