Lithium diisopropylamide (LDA), a strongly basic, poorly silicophilic nucleophile reacts with α-phenylsilanes bearing β-leaving groups to cause 1,2-silyl migration and loss of the leaving group.

The selective synthesis of Z-alkenes in alkyne semihydrogenation relies on the reactivity difference of the catalysts toward the starting materials and the products. Here we report Z-selective semihydrogenation of alkynes with ethanol via a coordination-induced ionic monohydride mechanism. The EtOH-coordination-driven Cl- dissociation in a pincer Ir(III) hydridochloride complex (NCP)IrHCl (1) forms a cationic monohydride, [(NCP)IrH(EtOH)]+Cl-, that reacts selectively with alkynes over the corresponding Z-alkenes, thereby overcoming competing thermodynamically dominant alkene Z-E isomerization and overreduction. The challenge for establishing a catalytic cycle, however, lies in the alcoholysis step; the reaction of the alkyne insertion product (NCP)IrCl(vinyl) with EtOH does occur, but very slowly. Surprisingly, the alcoholysis does not proceed via direct protonolysis of the Ir-C(vinyl) bond. Instead, mechanistic data are consistent with an anion-involved alcoholysis pathway involving ionization of (NCP)IrCl(vinyl) via EtOH-for-Cl substitution and reversible protonation of Cl- ion with an Ir(III)-bound EtOH, followed by β-H elimination of the ethoxy ligand and C(vinyl)-H reductive elimination. The use of an amine is key to the monohydride mechanism by promoting the alcoholysis. The 1-amine-EtOH catalytic system exhibits an unprecedented level of substrate scope, generality, and compatibility, as demonstrated by Z-selective reduction of all alkyne classes, including challenging enynes and complex polyfunctionalized molecules. Comparison with a cationic monohydride complex bearing a noncoordinating BArF- ion elucidates the beneficial role of the Cl- ion in controlling the stereoselectivity, and comparison between 1-amine-EtOH and 1-NaOtBu-EtOH underscores the fact that this base variable, albeit in catalytic amounts, leads to different mechanisms and consequently different stereoselectivity.
Catalytic Hydrogenation of Alkenes and Alkynes by a Cobalt Pincer Complex: Evidence of Roles for Both Co(I) and Co(II)

The Co(I) complex, [Co(N2)(CyPNP)] (CyPNP = anion of 2,5-bis-(dicyclohexylphosphinomethyl)pyrrole), is active toward the catalytic hydrogenation of terminal alkenes and the semi-hydrogenation of internal alkynes under 2 bar of H2 (g) at room temperature. The products of alkyne semi-hydrogenation are a mixture of E- and Z-alkenes. By contrast, use of the related cobalt(I) precatalyst, [Co(PMe3)(CyPNP)], results in formation of exclusively Z-alkenes. A semi-stable Co(II) species, [CoH(CyPNP)], can also be generated by treatment of degassed solutions of [Co(N2)(CyPNP)] with H2. The CoII-hydride displays activity toward both alkene hydrogenation and isomerization, but its instability hampers implementation as a catalyst. Several species relevant to potential catalytic intermediates have been isolated and detected in solution. These compounds include alkene and alkyne adducts of Co(I) as well as a Co(III) dihydride species. Catalytic results with the compounds examined are most consistent with a process involving shuttling between Co(I) and Co(III) states. However, generation of small quantities of Co(II) during catalytic turnover appears to be responsible for the isomerization observed for alkyne semi-hydrogenation. The interplay of cobalt oxidation states within the same catalyst system is discussed in the context of mechanistic scenarios for catalytic hydrogenation.

Chromium complexes have found very little applications as hydrogenation catalysts. Here, we report a Cr-catalyzed semi-hydrogenation of internal alkynes to the corresponding Z-alkenes with good stereocontrol (up to 99/1 for dialkyl alkynes). The catalyst comprises the commercial reagents chromium(III) acetylacetonate, Cr(acac)3, and diisobutylaluminium hydride, DIBAL?H, in THF. The semi-hydrogenation operates at mild conditions (1-5 bar H2, 30 °C).

Unlike the classical organometallic approach, we report here a synthetic pathway requiring no reducing sources or heating to produce homogeneous hexagonal-close-packed cobalt nanocrystals (Co NCs). Involving a disproportionation process, this simple and fast (6 min) synthesis is performed at room temperature in the presence of ecofriendly fatty alcohols to passivate Co NCs. Through a recycling step, the yield of Co NCs is improved and the waste generation is limited, making this synthetic route cleaner. After an easy exchange of the capping ligands, we applied them as unsupported catalysts in the stereoselective semihydrogenation of alkynes.

The catalytic utility of [RuL1(CO)2I2] (1), containing an annelated π-conjugated imidazo-naphthyridine-based mesoionic carbene (MIC) ligand (L1), is evaluated for E-selective alkyne semihydrogenation. The precatalyst 1, in combination with 2 equiv of AgBArF, semihydrogenates a broad range of internal alkynes with molecular hydrogen (5 bar) in water. (E)-Alkenes are accessed in high yields, and a number of reducible functional groups are tolerated. A chelate MIC ligand and two cis carbonyls provide a well-defined platform at the Ru center for hydrogenation and isomerization. The loss of two iodides and the presence of two carbonyls render the Ru center electron deficient and thus the formation of metal vinylidenes with terminal alkynes is avoided. This is leveraged for the semihydrogenation of terminal alkynes by the same catalytic system in isopropyl alcohol. Reaction profile, isomerization, kinetic, and DFT studies reveal initial alkyne hydrogenation to a (Z)-alkene, which further isomerizes to an (E)-alkene via metal-catalyzed Z → E isomerization.

Bimetallic catalysts of nickel(0) with a trivalent rare-earth ion or Ga(III), NiML3 (where L is [iPr2PCH2NPh]-, and M is Sc, Y, La, Lu, or Ga), were investigated for the selective hydrogenation of diphenylacetylene (DPA) to (E)-stilbene. Each bimetallic complex features a relatively short Ni-M bond length, ranging from 2.3395(8) ? (Ni-Ga) to 2.5732(4) ? (Ni-La). The anodic peak potentials of the NiML3 complexes vary from -0.48 V to -1.23 V, where the potentials are negatively correlated with the Lewis acidity of the M(III) ion. Three catalysts, Ni-Y, Ni-Lu, and Ni-Ga, showed nearly quantitative conversions in the semihydrogenation of DPA, with NiYL3 giving the highest selectivity for (E)-stilbene. Initial rate studies were performed on the two tandem catalytic reactions: DPA hydrogenation and (Z)-stilbene isomerization. The catalytic activity in DPA hydrogenation follows the order Ni-Ga > Ni-La > Ni-Y > Ni-Lu > Ni-Sc. The ranking of catalysts by (Z)-stilbene isomerization initial rates is Ni-Ga ? Ni-Sc > Ni-Lu > Ni-Y > Ni-La. In operando 31P and 1H NMR studies revealed that in the presence of DPA, the Ni bimetallic complexes supported by Y, Lu, and La form the Ni(η2-alkyne) intermediate, (η2-PhCCPh)Ni(iPr2PCH2NPh)2M(κ2-iPr2PCH2NPh). In contrast, the Ni-Ga resting state is the Ni(η2-H2) species, and Ni-Sc showed no detectable binding of either substrate. Hence, the mechanism of Ni-catalyzed diphenylacetylene semihydrogenation adheres to two different kinetics: an autotandem pathway (Ni-Ga, Ni-Sc) versus temporally separated tandem reactions (Ni-Y, Ni-Lu, Ni-La). Collectively, the experimental results demonstrate that modulating a base-metal center via a covalently appended Lewis acidic support is viable for promoting selective alkyne semihydrogenation.
Divergent Synthesis of Vinyl-, Benzyl-, and Borylsilanes: Aryl to Alkyl 1,5-Palladium Migration/Coupling Sequences

Organosilicon compounds have been extensively utilized both in industry and academia. Studies on the syntheses of diverse organosilanes is highly appealing. Through-space metal/hydrogen shifts allow functionalization of C?H bonds at a remote site, which are otherwise difficult to achieve. However, until now, an aryl to alkyl 1,5-palladium migration process seems to have not been presented. Reported herein is the remote olefination, arylation, and borylation of a methyl group on silicon to access diverse vinyl-, benzyl-, and borylsilanes, constituting a unique C(sp3)?H transformation based on a 1,5-palladium migration process.
