The isolable chelating bis(N-heterocyclic silylenyl)-substituted terphenyl ligand [SiII(Terp)SiII] as well as its bis(phosphine) analogue [PIII(Terp)PIII] have been synthesised and fully characterised. Their reaction with Ni(cod)2(cod = cycloocta-1,5-diene) affords the corresponding 16 VE nickel(0) complexes with an intramolecularη2-arene coordination of Ni, [E(Terp)E]Ni(η2-arene) (E = PIII, SiII; arene = phenylene spacer). Due to a strong cooperativity of the Si and Ni sites in H2activation and H atom transfer, [SiII(Terp)SiII]Ni(η2-arene) mediates very effectively and chemoselectively the homogeneously catalysed hydrogenation of olefins bearing functional groups at 1 bar H2pressure and room temperature; in contrast, the bis(phosphine) analogous complex shows only poor activity. Catalytic and stoichiometric experiments revealed the important role of the η2-coordination of the Ni(0) site by the intramolecular phenylene with respect to the hydrogenation activity of [SiII(Terp)SiII]Ni(η2-arene). The mechanism has been established by kinetic measurements, including kinetic isotope effect (KIE) and Hammet-plot correlation. With this system, the currently highest performance of a homogeneous nickel-based hydrogenation catalyst of olefins (TON = 9800, TOF = 6800 h?1) could be realised.

1,2-Aryl migration of α,α-diaryl tertiary azides was achieved by using the catalytic system of FeCl2/N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) SIPr·HCl. The reaction generated aniline products in good yields after one-pot reduction of the migration-resultant imines.

We first synthesized a diblock copolymer poly[tert-butyl methacrylate]-b-poly[3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl methacrylate] (PtBMA-b-PTMSPMA) through reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) living radical polymerization and grafted it onto fumed silica by converting the PTMSPMA segment to silanol and the PtBMA segment to polymethylacrylic acid (PMAA) in the presence of trifluoroacetic acid in order to obtain PMAA brush-coated silica nanoaggregates P-Si. TEM, DLS, FTIR, and TGA results confirmed the successful modification of the starting materials. The nanoaggregates flocculated and stabilized a toluene-in-water Pickering emulsion at low pH, while the nanoaggregates were well dispersed in water and broke the emulsion under both neutral and basic conditions. Alternatively, the addition of acid/base induced emulsification/demulsification cycles that were sustained for several cycles. Moreover, when the P-Si was mixed with Rh-loaded silica, Rh-Si, the mixture had the same pH-responsive Pickering emulsion behavior as the single P-Si. This Pickering emulsion system can be used in the biphasic interfacial catalytic hydrogenation of olefins and had excellent yields under a hydrogen atmosphere. The yield of Pickering emulsion catalysis rapidly reached more than 99% in 3 h, while that of the demulsified mixture failed to reach 20% in 4 h, which verified the promotion of catalysis by the Pickering emulsion. Base-induced demulsification can be used to separate the products and recycle the catalyst. This pH-responsive Pickering emulsion catalytic system was capable of several cycles of reuse, and there was no significant decrease in catalytic efficiency even after eight cycles. This journal is
