The formation of several silyl ethers (alkoxysilanes, R3Si-OR') and unsymmetrical siloxanes (R3Si-O-SiR'3) can be catalyzed by the commercially available potassium bis(trimethylsilyl)amide (KHMDS). The reaction proceeds via direct dealkynative coupling between various alcohols or silanols and alkynylsilanes, with a simultaneous formation of gaseous acetylene as the sole by-product. The dehydrogenative and dealkenative coupling of alcohols or silanols are well-investigated, whilst the utilization of alkynylsilanes as silylating agents has never been comprehensively studied in this context. Overall, the presented system allows the synthesis of various attractive organosilicon compounds under mild conditions, making this approach an atom-efficient, environmentally benign, and sustainable alternative to existing synthetic solutions.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for synthesizing siloxanes at will in good yield while maintaining high structural controllability, which can be applied to substrates having various substituents.SOLUTION: The method comprises reacting benzyloxysilanes and silicon halides in the absence of hydrogen using a catalyst comprising a transition metal or a compound thereof, preferably a metal of group 9 or group 10 of the periodic table or a compound thereof. Thereby, corresponding siloxanes can be produced safely and simply in high yield under a mild reaction condition accompanied by elimination of a benzyl halide. Especially, by using an active carbon-supported catalyst as a heterogeneous catalyst, the target siloxanes can be separated easily.

We demonstrate that using Mo(CO)6, Mo(CO)5NMe 3, and (η5-C5H5)Mn(CO) 3 as catalysts for the silane, R3SiH, reduction of N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), and N,N-diethylformamide (DEF), we can observe, intercept, and isolate, the important siloxymethylamine intermediates, R 3SiOCH2NR'2, R' = Me, Et, for the first time. In the presence of excess DMF such intermediates thermally react with a variety of silanes to form the corresponding disiloxanes in the absence of a metal catalyst. We also show that the germanium hydrides, Et3GeH and Bu3GeH, also reduce DMF to form trimethylamine and the corresponding digermoxane but observe no intermediates R3GeOCH2NMe 2. Bu3SnH reduces DMF, but along with the low yields of Bu3SnOSnBu3 (but no Bu3SnOCH 2NMe2) significant side products are obtained including (Bu3Sn)2 and Bu4Sn. In the absence of DMF the siloxymethylamines can undergo metal-catalyzed reactions with silanes, germanes and stannanes to form disiloxanes, and R3SiOER3 E = Ge, Sn, respectively. To date, the most efficient catalyst for this latter process is (η5-C5H5)Mo(CO)3CH 3 via a photochemical reaction.
