Metal-free hydrogen evolution cross-coupling enabled by synergistic photoredox and polarity reversal catalysis

A synergistic combination of photoredox and polarity reversal catalysis enabled a hydrogen evolution cross-coupling of silanes with H2O, alcohols, phenols, and silanols, which afforded the corresponding silanols, monosilyl ethers, and disilyl ethers, respectively, in moderate to excellent yields. The dehydrogenative cross-coupling of Si-H and O-H proceeded smoothly with broad substrate scope and good functional group compatibility in the presence of only an organophotocatalyst 4-CzIPN and a thiol HAT catalyst, without the requirement of any metals, external oxidants and proton reductants, which is distinct from the previously reported photocatalytic hydrogen evolution cross-coupling reactions where a proton reduction cocatalyst such as a cobalt complex is generally required. Mechanistically, a silyl cation intermediate is generated to facilitate the cross-coupling reaction, which therefore represents an unprecedented approach for the generation of silyl cationviavisible-light photoredox catalysis.

Highly Selective Hydroxylation and Alkoxylation of Silanes: One-Pot Silane Oxidation and Reduction of Aldehydes/Ketones

An efficient chemoselective iridium-catalyzed method for the hydroxylation and alkoxylation of organosilanes to generate hydrogen gas and silanols or silyl ethers was developed. A variety of sterically hindered silanes with alkyl, aryl, and ether groups were tolerated. Furthermore, this atom-economical catalytic protocol can be used for the synthesis of silanediols and silanetriols. A one-pot silane oxidation and chemoselective reduction of aldehydes/ketones was also realized.

Coexistence of Cu(ii) and Cu(i) in Cu ion-doped zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIF-8) for the dehydrogenative coupling of silanes with alcohols

Recently, metal-ion-doped zeolitic imidazolate frameworks have gained considerable attention for their structure tailorability and potential catalytic applications. Herein, Cu ion-doped ZIF-8 nanocrystals were successfully prepared by the mechanical grind

Metal-Free Ammonium Iodide Catalyzed Oxidative Dehydrocoupling of Silanes with Alcohols

An ammonium iodide catalyzed direct oxidative coupling of silanes with alcohols to give various alkoxysilane derivatives was discovered. tert -Butyl hydroperoxide proved to be an efficient oxidant for this transformation. Attractive features of this protocol include its transition-metal-free nature and the mild reaction conditions.

Catalytic Dehydrogenative Coupling of Hydrosilanes with Alcohols for the Production of Hydrogen On-demand: Application of a Silane/Alcohol Pair as a Liquid Organic Hydrogen Carrier

The compound [Ru(p-cym)(Cl)2(NHC)] is an effective catalyst for the room-temperature coupling of silanes and alcohols with the concomitant formation of molecular hydrogen. High catalyst activity is observed for a variety of substrates affording quantitative yields in minutes at room temperature and with a catalyst loading as low as 0.1 mol %. The coupling reaction is thermodynamically and, in the presence of a Ru complex, kinetically favourable and allows rapid molecular hydrogen generation on-demand at room temperature, under air, and without any additive. The pair silane/alcohol is a potential liquid organic hydrogen carrier (LOHC) for energy storage over long periods in a safe and secure way. Silanes and alcohols are non-toxic compounds and do not require special handling precautions such as high pressure or an inert atmosphere. These properties enhance the practical applications of the pair silane/alcohol as a good LOHC in the automotive industry. The variety and availability of silanes and alcohols permits a pair combination that fulfils the requirements for developing an efficient LOHC.

Synthesis of nitrogen and sulfur co-doped hierarchical porous carbons and metal-free oxidative coupling of silanes with alcohols

Hierarchically porous N and S co-doped carbon was prepared by using 2,5-dihydroxy-1,4-benzoquinone as the carbon source, thiourea as the N and S source, and SiO2 particles as the template. Using the material as the catalyst, oxidative coupling of silanes with alcohols was conducted for the first time under metal-free conditions.
