1,4-Hydrosilylation of pyridine by ruthenium catalyst: A new reaction and mechanism
Osakada, Kohtaro
, p. 3845 - 3846 (2011)
Making introductions: A half-sandwich Ru complex catalyzes the hydrosilylation of pyridine derivatives to produce N-silyl-3-hydropyridine through a 1,4-addition of the Si-H group (see scheme). The reversibility of the hydrosilylation was suggested based on the experimental results.

Not only surprisingly facile, a hydrosilylation of pyridines under the catalysis of [Cp(iPr3P)Ru(NCCH3)2]+ has the advantages that it is 1,4-regioselective and reversible. The products can be transformed in a variety of ways (see scheme). The related complex [CpRu(NCCH3)3]+ catalyzes the two-hydrogen-atom reduction of phenanthroline by HSiMe2Ph/water.
