摘要

The metal-hydride hydrogen atom transfer (MHAT) reaction plays an important role in the field of natural product synthesis. MHAT, as a powerful method, has been employed by chemists to construct C-C, C-H, and C-heteroatom bonds. In this review, we summarize the recent total synthesis of natural products using MHAT to functionalize olefins with first-row transition metal catalysts such as cobalt, manganese and iron.
