Phosphoramidite complexes of Pd(II), Pt(II) and Rh(I): An effective hydrosilylation catalyst of 1-hexyne and 1-octene

The hydrophosphorane HP(OC6H4NMe)2 was used to prepare the diastereotopic complexes [MCl2{P(OC6H4NMe)OC6H4NHMe}] (M?=?Pd, Pt) by reaction with [MCl2(PhCN)2], and [RhCl(PPh3){P(OC6H4NMe)OC6H4NHMe}] by reaction with [RhCl(PPh3)3]. To form these complexes, the phosphorane undergoes ring-opening, whereby it is coordinated as the tautomeric neutral phosphoramidite-amino chelating ligand. The crystal structure of [RhCl(PPh3){P(OC6H4NMe)OC6H4NHMe}] was determined and the geometry about the Rh(I) atom is square-planar with cis-disposed phosphorus-donor ligands. The Rh–P distance is shortened (2.1056(6) ?) due to Rh(d)?→?P π-backbonding. In addition, [RhCl(PPh3){P(OC6H4NMe)OC6H4NHMe}] was shown to be an effective regio- and stereoselective catalyst for the hydrosilylation of 1-octene and 1-hexyne.

Effect of triarylphosphane ligands on the rhodium-catalyzed hydrosilylation of alkene

A series of triarylphosphanes (1a, 2a, 3a, 4a, 5a, 6a, 7a, 8a, 9a, 10a, 11a) have been synthesized. An X-ray crystal structure analysis of (2-bromophenyl)diphenylphosphane (1a) unambiguously confirmed the constitution of the functionalized phosphane. The hydrosilylation reaction of styrene with triethoxysilane catalyzed with RhCl3/triarylphosphane was studied. In comparison with the classic Wilkinson's catalyst, rhodium complexes with functionalized triarylphosphane ligands are characterized by a very high catalytic effectiveness for the hydrosilylation of alkene. Among these catalysts tested, RhCl3/diphenyl(2-(trimethylsilyl)phenyl)phosphane (8a) exhibited excellent catalytic properties. Using this silicon-containing phosphane ligand for the rhodium-catalyzed hydrosilylation of styrene, both higher conversion of alkene and higher β-adduct selectivity were obtained than with Wilkinson's catalyst.

Highly selective dehydrogenative silylation of alkenes catalyzed by rhenium complexes

Rhenium(I) complexes of type [ReBr2(L)(NO)(PR3) 2] (L = H2 (1), CH3CN (2), and ethylene (3); R = iPr (a) and cyclohexyl (Cy; b)) catalyze dehydrogenative silylation of alkenes in a highly selective ma
