The hydrosilylation of unsaturated compounds homogeneously catalyzed by cobalt complexes has gained considerable attention in the last years, aiming at substituting precious metal-based catalysts. In this study, the catalytic activity of well-characterized CoII and CoI complexes of the pToldpbp ligand is demonstrated in the hydrosilylation of 1-octene with phenylsilane. The CoI complex is the better precatalyst for the mentioned reaction under mild conditions, at 1 mol-% catalyst, 1 h, room temperature, and without solvent, yielding 84 % of octylphenylsilane. Investigation of the substrate scope shows lower performance of the catalyst in styrene hydrosilylation, but excellent results with allylbenzene (84 %) and acetophenone (> 99 %). This catalytic study contributes to the field of cobalt-catalyzed hydrosilylation reactions and shows the first example of catalysis employing the dpbp ligand in combination with a base metal.

The widespread adoption of earth-abundant metal catalysis lags behind that of the second- and third-row transition metals due to the often challenging practical requirements needed to generate the active low oxidation-state catalysts. Here we report the development of a single endogenous activation protocol across five reaction classes using both iron- and cobalt pre-catalysts. This simple catalytic manifold uses commercially available, bench-stable iron- or cobalt tetrafluoroborate salts to perform regiodivergent alkene and alkyne hydrosilylation, 1,3-diene hydrosilylation, hydrogenation, [2π + 2π]-cycloaddition and C-H borylation. The activation protocol proceeds by fluoride dissociation from the counterion, in situ formation of a hydridic activator and generation of a low oxidation-state catalyst.

The chemo-, regio-, and stereoselective iron-catalysed hydrosilylation of alkenes and alkynes with excellent functional group tolerance is reported (34 examples, 41-96% yield). The catalyst and reagents are commercially available and easy to handle, with the active iron catalyst being generated in situ, thus providing a simple and practical methodology for iron-catalysed hydrosilylation. The silane products can be oxidised to the anti-Markovnikov product of olefin hydration, and the one-pot iron-catalysed hydrosilylation-oxidation of olefins to give silane(di)ols directly is also reported. The iron pre-catalyst was used at loadings as low as 0.07 mol%, and displayed catalyst turnover frequencies (TOF) approaching 60,000 molh-1. Initial mechanistic studies indicate an iron(I) active catalyst.
