A catalytic, light-promoted hydrosilylative cleavage reaction of alkyl ethers is reported. Initial studies are consistent with a mechanism involving heterolytic silane activation followed by delivery of a photohydride equivalent to a silyloxonium ion generated in situ. The catalyst resting state is a mixture of Cp*Ir(ppy)H (ppy = 2-phenylpyridine-κC,N) and a related hydride-bridged dimer. Trends in selectivity in substrate reduction are consistent with nonradical mechanisms for C-O bond scission. Irradiation of Cp*Ir(ppy)H with blue light is found to increase the rate of hydride delivery to an oxonium ion in a stoichiometric test. A comparable rate enhancement is found in carbonyl hydrosilylation catalysis, which operates through a related mechanism also involving Cp*Ir(ppy)H as the resting state.

Nanoparticulate intermetallic compound Ni3Ga supported on SiO2has emerged as a highly efficient catalyst for the hydrosilylation of carbonyls, such as aldehydes and ketones, at room temperature. Formation of electron-enriched Niviaal
Selective alkyl ether cleavage by cationic bis(phosphine)iridium complexes
Jones, Caleb A. H.,Schley, Nathan D.
, p. 1744 - 1748 (2019/02/20)
Catalysts capable of heterolytic silane activation have been successfully applied to the conversion of alkyl ethers to silyl ethers via C-O bond cleavage. The previously-reported cationic pincer-supported iridium complex for this transformation suffers fr
