Cationic silane δ-complexes of ruthenium with relevance to catalysis

Hydrosilylation of carbonyls catalyzed by 2 goes via intermediate formation of cationic silane σ-complexes 4 which undergo nucleophilic abstraction of the silylium cation studied by DFT calculations.

Copper-Catalyzed Electrophilic Amination of Alkoxyarylsilanes

We report a copper-catalyzed amination reaction between simple alkoxyarylsilanes and N-benzoyloxyamines. Silver fluoride serves as a stoichiometric base as well as an indispensable activator that allows the catalytic process to proceed. Multiply alkoxylated arylsilanes, such as trialkoxyarylsilanes and dialkoxyarylsilanes were transformed into the corresponding tertiary anilines under mild reaction conditions.

Continuous-flow Si-H functionalizations of hydrosilanesviasequential organolithium reactions catalyzed by potassiumtert-butoxide

We herein report an atom-economic flow approach to the selective and sequential mono-, di-, and tri-functionalizations of unactivated hydrosilanesviaserial organolithium reactions catalyzed by earth-abundant metal compounds. Based on the screening of various additives, we found that catalytic potassiumtert-butoxide (t-BuOK) facilitates the rapid reaction of organolithiums with hydrosilanes. Using a flow microreactor system, various organolithiums bearing functional groups were efficiently generatedin situunder mild conditions and consecutively reacted with hydrosilanes in the presence oft-BuOK within 1 min. We also successfully conducted the di-funtionalizations of dihydrosilane by sequential organolithium reactions, extending to a gram-scale-synthesis. Finally, the combinatorial functionalizations of trihydrosilane were achieved to give every conceivable combination of tetrasubstituted organosilane libraries based on a precise reaction control using an integrated one-flow system.

Synthesis of hydrosilanes: Via Lewis-base-catalysed reduction of alkoxy silanes with NaBH4

Hydrosilanes were synthesized by reduction of alkoxy silanes with BH3 in the presence of hexamethylphosphoric triamide (HMPA) as a Lewis-base catalyst. The reaction was also achieved using an inexpensive and easily handled hydride source NaBH4, which reacted with EtBr as a sacrificial reagent to form BH3in situ.

Highly efficient etherification of silanes by using a gold nanoparticle catalyst: Remarkable effect of O2

O2 is acting! A nanosized hydroxylapatite-supported Au nanoparticle (NP) catalyst exhibited high activity under aerobic conditions, and various silyl ethers could be obtained from diverse combinations of silanes with alcohols. Moreover, O2 was found to act not as a stoichiometric oxidizing reagent, but as a non-consumed promoter, significantly boosting the catalytic activity of AuNPs (see figure). Copyright

An efficient solvent-free route to silyl esters and silyl ethers

Dinuclear metal complexes, especially (p-cymene)ruthenium dichloride dimer {[RuCl2(p-cymene)]2}, have been found to exhibit high catalytic performance for the dehydrosilylation of various kinds of carboxylic acids and alcohols. The dehydrosilylation with [RuCl2(p-cymene)] 2 proceeded efficiently with only one equivalent of silane with respect to substrate (carboxylic acids or alcohols) under solvent-free conditions to give the corresponding silyl esters and ethers in excellent yields with a high turnover number (TON) and frequency (TOF). The 1H NMR spectrum of a toluene-d8 solution of [RuCl2(p-cymene)] 2 and a silane showed a signal assignable to the ruthenium hydride species. In contrast, no new signals were detected in the 1H NMR spectrum of a toluene-d8 solution of [RuCl2(p-cymene)] 2 and a carboxylic acid or an alcohol. There-fore, the ruthenium metal in [RuCl2(p-cymene)]2 activates a silane to afford the hydride intermediate, possibly a silylmetal hydride species. Then, the nucleophilic attack of a substrate (carboxylic acid or alcohol) to the hydride intermediate proceeds to give the corresponding silylated product. The present dehydrosilylation with an optically active silane proceeded exclusively under inversion of stereochemistry at the chiral silicon center, suggesting that the nucleophilic attack of a substrate to the hydride intermediate occurs from the backside of the ruthenium-silicon bond.

Generation of silylethynolates via C-Si bond cleavage of disilylketenes induced by t-BuOK

Disilylketenes undergo selective mono-desilylation upon treatment of t-BuOK in the presence of HMPA. The resulting silylethynolates are convertible to other disilylketenes in good yields. The intermediary silylethynolate was analyzed by NMR and IR spectroscopy.

Steady state and time-resolved spectroscopic studies of the photochemistry of 1-arylsilacyclobutanes and the chemistry of 1-arylsilenes

Direct photolysis of 1-phenylsilacyclobutane and 1-phenyl-, 1-(2-phenylethynyl)-, and 1-(4'-biphenylyl)-1-methylsilacyclobutane in hexane solution leads to the formation of ethylene and the corresponding 1-arylsilenes, which have been trapped by photolysis in the presence of methanol. Quantum yields for photolysis of the three methyl-substituted compounds have been determined to be 0.04, 0.26, and 0.29, respectively, using the photolysis of 1,1-diphenylsilacyclobutane (Φ(silene) = 0.21) as the actinometer. The corresponding silenes have been detected by laser flash photolysis; they have lifetimes of several microseconds, exhibit UV absorption maxima ranging from 315 to 330 nm, and react with methanol with rate constants on the order of (2-5) x 109 M-1 s-1 in hexane. Absolute rate constants for reaction of 1-phenylsilene and 1-methyl-1-phenylsilene with water, methanol, tert-butanol, and acetic acid in acetonitrile solution have been determined, and are compared to those of 1,1-diphenylsilene under the same conditions. With the phenylethynyl- and biphenyl-substituted methylsilacyclobutanes, the triplet states can also be detected by laser flash photolysis, and are shown to not be involved in silene formation on the basis of triplet sensitization and (or) quenching experiments. Fluorescence emission spectra and singlet lifetimes have been determined for the three 1-aryl-1-methylsilacyclobutanes, 1,1-diphenylsilacyclobutane, and a series of acyclic arylmethylsilane model compounds. These data, along with the reaction quantum yields, allow estimates to be made of the rate constants for the excited singlet state reaction responsible for silene formation. 1-Methyl-1-phenylsilacyclobutane undergoes reaction from its lowest excited singlet state with a rate constant 10-80 times lower than those of the other three derivatives. The results are consistent with a stepwise mechanism for silene formation, involving a 1,4-biradicaloid intermediate that partitions between product and starting material.

An Efficient Catalyst for the Conversion of Hydrosilanes to Alkoxysilanes

The copper(I) hydride 6 is an efficient catalyst for the alcoholysis of primary and secondary silanes.The reactions proceed at room temperature within a few hours and give the alkoxysilanes in high yields.Only with bulky alcohols or silanes are longer reaction times and/or increased temperatures required.The presence of air accelarates the reactions and gives rise to higher yields of alkoxysilanes, particularly with bulky alcohols.Diols react with PhRSiH2 (R = Me, Ph) to afford 1,3-dioxo-2-silacycloalkanes and with tertiary silanes to furnish the bissilylated diols.When unsaturated alcohols (2-propen-1-ol or 2-propyn-1-ol) are employed, the double or triple bond is retained. - Keywords: Catalytic silane alcoholysis; Alkoxysilanes
