The organometallic chemistry of organomanganates is first summarized. X‐ray crystallographic analysis revealed many interesting aspects of organomanganate complexes. Not only sigma‐bonded manganates but also pai‐bonded manganates are intriguing. Second, the application of organomanganates in organic synthesis is described. Organomanganates reacted with carbonyls and organic halides as cuprates do. Halogen‐manganese exchange provides a useful transformation of organic halides, especially of dihalo compounds. Carbometalation via manganates shows unique reactivity. Manganates can serve as reducing agents via single electron transfer.
