Regioselective hydrosilylation of terminal acetylenes via acetylene-Co 2(CO)4dppm complex: Effects of the ligands in acetylenedicobalt complex

The regioselective hydrosilylation of the acetylenedicobalt complex on the terminal acetylene with special reference to the ligands to produce a vinylsilane is described. It was found that the use of the ligands exchanged dicobalttetracarbonyl bis(diphenylphosphino)methane complex dramatically changed the regioselectivity compared to the corresponding dicobalthexacarbonyl complex.

Manganese-Catalyzed Dehydrogenative Silylation of Alkenes following Two Parallel Inner-Sphere Pathways

We report on an additive-free Mn(I)-catalyzed dehydrogenative silylation of terminal alkenes. The most active precatalyst is the bench-stable alkyl bisphosphine Mn(I) complex fac-[Mn(dippe)(CO)3(CH2CH2CH3)]. The catalytic process is initiated by migratory insertion of a CO ligand into the Mn-alkyl bond to yield an acyl intermediate which undergoes rapid Si-H bond cleavage of the silane HSiR3 forming the active 16e- Mn(I) silyl catalyst [Mn(dippe)(CO)2(SiR3)] together with liberated butanal. A broad variety of aromatic and aliphatic alkenes was efficiently and selectively converted into E-vinylsilanes and allylsilanes, respectively, at room temperature. Mechanistic insights are provided based on experimental data and DFT calculations revealing that two parallel reaction pathways are operative: an acceptorless reaction pathway involving dihydrogen release and a pathway requiring an alkene as sacrificial hydrogen acceptor.

Manganese-catalysed divergent silylation of alkenes

Transition-metal-catalysed, redox-neutral dehydrosilylation of alkenes is a long-standing challenge in organic synthesis, with current methods suffering from low selectivity and narrow scope. In this study, we report a general and simple method for the manganese-catalysed dehydrosilylation and hydrosilylation of alkenes, with Mn2(CO)10 as a catalyst precursor, by using a ligand-tuned metalloradical reactivity strategy. This enables versatility and controllable selectivity with a 1:1 ratio of alkenes and silanes, and the synthetic robustness and practicality of this method are demonstrated using complex alkenes and light olefins. The selectivity of the reaction has been studied using density functional theory calculations, showing the use of an iPrPNP ligand to favour dehydrosilylation, while a JackiePhos ligand favours hydrosilylation. The reaction is redox-neutral and atom-economical, exhibits a broad substrate scope and excellent functional group tolerance, and is suitable for various synthetic applications on a gram scale.

Short-chained platinum complex catalyzed hydrosilylation under thermomorphic conditions: Heterogeneous phase separation at ice temperature

Homogeneous catalysts PtCl2 [5,5′-bis-(n-ClCF2 (CF2 )3 CH2 OCH2 )-2,2′-bpy] (2A) and PtCl2 [5,5′-bis-(n-HCF2 (CF2 )3 CH2 OCH2 )-2,2′-bpy] (2B), which contained short fluorous chains, were synthe-sized and used in catalysis of hydrosilylation of alkynes. In these reactions the thermomorphic mode was effectively used to recover these catalysts from the reaction mixture up to eight cycles by taking advantage of heterogeneous phase separation at ice temperature. This kind of catalysis had previously been observed in fluorous catalysts of platinum containing about 50% F-content, but in this work the percentage of F-content is decreased to only about 30%, by which we termed them as “very light fluorous”. Our new type of catalyst with limited number of F-content is considered as the important discovery in the fluorous technology field as the reduced number of fluorine atoms will help to be able to comply the EPA 8-carbon rule. The metal leaching after the reaction has been examined by ICP-MS, and the testing results show the leaching of residual metal to be minimal. Additionally, comparing these results to our previous work, fluorous chain assisted selectivity has been observed when different fluorous chain lengths of the catalysts are used. It has been found that there exists fluorous chain assisted better selectivity towards β-(E) form in the Pt-catalyzed hydrosilylation of non-symmetric terminal alkyne when the Pt catalyst contains short fluorous chain (i.e., 4 Cs). Phenyl acetylenes showed the opposite regioselectivity due to pi-pi interaction while using the same catalyst via Markovnikov’s addition to form terminal vinyl silane, which is then a major product for Pt-catalyzed hydrosilylation of terminal aryl acetylene with triethylsilane. Finally, the kinetic studies indicate that the insertion of alkyne into the Pt-H bond is the rate-determining step.

[Rh(Cod)Cl]2/Pph3?catalyzed dehydrogenative silylation of styrene derivatives with NBE as a hydrogen acceptor

Direct synthesis of arylalkenylsilanes by [Rh(COD)Cl]2/ PPh3-catalyzed dehydrogenative silylation of styrene derivatives with R3SiH (R = alkyl, alkoxy, aryl) was realized, in which norbornene (NBE) and PPh3 play a key role in achieving excellent selectivity in the formation of dehydrogenative silylation products. Moreover, this high-yielding transformation exhibits a broad substrate scope and good functional group tolerance.

Carboxylate-Assisted β-(Z) Stereoselective Hydrosilylation of Terminal Alkynes Catalyzed by a Zwitterionic Bis-NHC Rhodium(III) Complex

The zwitterionic compound [Cp*RhCl{(MeIm)2CHCOO}] is an efficient catalyst for the hydrosilylation of terminal alkynes with excellent regio- and stereoselectivity toward the less thermodynamically stable β-(Z)-vinylsilane isomer under mild reaction conditions. A broad range of linear 1-alkynes, cycloalkyl acetylenes, and aromatic alkynes undergo the hydrosilylation with HSiMe2Ph to afford the corresponding β-(Z)-vinylsilanes in quantitative yields in short reaction times. The reaction of aliphatic alkynes with HSiEt3 is slower, resulting in a slight decrease of selectivity toward the β-(Z)-vinylsilane product, which is still greater than 90%. However, a significant selectivity decrease is observed in the hydrosilylation of aromatic alkynes because of the β-(Z) → β-(E) vinylsilane isomerization. Moreover, the hydrosilylation of bulky alkynes, such as t-Bu-CCH or Et3SiCCH, is unselective. Experimental evidence suggests that the carboxylate function plays a key role in the reaction mechanism, which has been validated by means of density functional theory calculations, as well as by mass spectrometry and labeling studies. On the basis of previous results, we propose an ionic outer-sphere mechanism pathway in which the carboxylate fragment acts as a silyl carrier. Namely, the hydrosilylation mechanism entails the heterolytic activation of the hydrosilane assisted by the carboxylate function to give the hydrido intermediate [Cp*RhH{(MeIm)2CHCOO-SiR3}]+. The transference of the silylium moiety from the carboxylate to the alkyne results in the formation of a flat β-silyl carbocation intermediate that undergoes a hydride transfer from the Rh(III) center to generate the vinylsilane product. The outstanding β-(Z) selectivity results from the minimization of the steric interaction between the silyl moiety and the ligand system in the hydride transfer transition state.
