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.

Novel catalytically active cationic Si(II) and Ge(II) compounds were synthesized and isolated in pure form. The Ge(II)+-based compounds proved to be stable against air and moisture and therefore can be handled very easily. All compounds efficiently catalyze the oxidative coupling of hydrosil(ox)anes with aldehydes and ketones as oxidation reagents and simultaneously the reductive ether coupling at very low amounts of 0.01 mol %. Because the catalysts also catalyze the reversible cyclotrimerization of aldehydes, paraldehyde can be used as a convenient source for acetaldehyde in siloxane coupling. It is shown that the reaction is especially suitable to make siloxane copolymers. Moreover, a new fluorine-free weakly coordinating boronate anion, B(SiCl3)4-, was successfully combined with the Si(II) and Ge(II) cations to give the stable catalytically active ion pairs Cp*Si:+B(SiCl3)4-, Cp*Ge:+B(SiCl3)4-, and [Cp(SiMe3)3Ge:+]B(SiCl3)4-.

A novel strategy to prepare methanol from formic acid without an external reductant is presented. The overall process described herein consists of the disproportionation of silyl formates to methoxysilanes, catalyzed by ruthenium complexes, and the production of methanol by simple hydrolysis. Aqueous solutions of MeOH (>1 mL, >70 percent yield) were prepared in this manner. The sustainability of the reaction has been established by recycling of the silicon-containing by-products with inexpensive, readily available, and environmentally benign reagents.

The formation of the spherical self-assembly of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) of 200 ± 20 nm size at the water-chloroform interface is achieved by employing the cyclotetrasiloxane [RSCH2CH2SiMeO]4 (R = CH2CH2OH) as the stabilizing ligand. The interfacially stabilized AuNPs act as a versatile catalyst for selective hydrolytic oxidation of only one of the Si-H bonds in secondary organosilanes, RR1SiH2 (R, R1 = alkyl, aryl, and sila-alkyl), to afford the high yield synthesis of 1,1,3,3-tetraorganodisiloxanes, (HRR1Si)2O. The study unravels for the first time the role of the photothermal effect arising from the excitation of the surface plasmon resonance of the AuNPs under visible light irradiation in enhancing the catalytic activity at ambient temperature.

We report here an efficient non-aqueous route to symmetrical disiloxanes from their corresponding organosilanes using Ni(COD)2 with 3,4,7,8-tetramethyl-1,10-phenanthroline in air. Our methodology is very simple and high yielding. The reaction mechanism is also proposed.

Because of its high kinetic stability, conditions to reduce the greenhouse gas N2O are limited; therefore, a better understanding of N2O chemistry and N-O bond cleavage is required. In this work, N2O was deoxygenated under metal-free conditions. Using disilanes as reducing agents and a catalytic amount of fluoride anions or alkoxides allowed a mild reduction at ambient pressure and temperature. DFT calculations unveiled the mechanism, which shows a nucleophilic addition of a silyl anion to the central N atom of N2O and release of N2 from a pseudo-Brook rearrangement.

Oxidation of organosilanes is one of the pivotal reactions in organic synthesis and the corresponding products of silanols are widely as raw materials in industrial processes. In this paper, a new type of polyoxomolybdate containing mixed-valence antimony, [SbVSbIII4Mo18O66]7? (1a), has been isolated as tetramethyl ammonium salt in aqueous solution. The compound was structurally characterized by FT-IR, XPRD, TG, XPS, ESI–MS etc. It is the first time that the containing mixed-valence antimony polyoxomolybdate was used as a heterogeneous catalyst to efficaciously catalyze the oxidation of organosilanes to silanols under mild reaction conditions. Furthermore, the catalyst was stable and maintained its catalytic activity after three reaction cycles.

Due to its significant contribution to stratospheric ozone depletion and its potent greenhouse effect, nitrous oxide has stimulated much research interest regarding its reactivity modes and its transformations, which can lead to its abatement. We report the homogeneously catalyzed reaction of nitrous oxide (N2O) with H2. The reaction is catalyzed by a PNP pincer ruthenium complex, generating efficiently only dinitrogen and water, under mild conditions, thus providing a green, mild methodology for removal of nitrous oxide. The reaction proceeds through a sequence of dihydrogen activation, "O"-atom transfer, and dehydration, in which metal-ligand cooperation plays a central role. This approach was further developed to catalytic O-transfer from N2O to Si-H bonds.

Dehydrocondensation reactions of silicon hydrides catalyzed by the rhodium(III) complex [RhCl3(Me2SO)3] in the absence of the second substrate were studied. It was found that the complex [RhCl3(Me2SO)3] catalyzed the dehydrocondensation reaction with the formation of compounds containing siloxane bonds. Analysis of NMR spectra has shown that the reaction of [RhCl3(Me2SO)3] with silicon hydride includes sequential desoxygenation of sulfoxide ligands to sulfide ligands with the complex [RhCl3(Me2S)3] formation.

The room temperature reactions between R3SiH (R3?=?Et3, PhMe2, Ph2Me) and R′3SiCl (R′3?=?Me3, PhMe2, Ph2Me), with an excess of dimethylformamide (DMF) in the presence of (Me3N)Mo(CO)5 as a catalyst, result in the initial formation of R3SiCl, R′3SiOSiR′3 and Me3N as detected by 29Si, 13C, 1H NMR spectroscopy and GC/MS. As the reaction proceeds, the more so if the reaction temperature is raised, mixed disiloxanes R3SiOSiR′3 and ultimately lesser amounts of R3SiOSiR3 may be detected. A mechanism involving the activation of chlorosilanes by the nucleophilic DMF is proposed to produce transient imminium siloxy ion pairs, [Me2N[dbnd]CHCl]+[R′3SiO]? ? [Me2N[dbnd]CH(OSiR′3)]+Cl? which react with R3SiH to form Me2NCH2OSiR′3 and R3SiCl. A secondary reaction of Me2NCH2OSiR′3 with R′3SiCl produces the symmetrical disiloxane R′3SiOSiR′3 and ClCH2NMe2. The final stage of the reaction is the reduction of ClCH2NMe2 by R3SiH, a reaction which is reported for the first time. The newly created chlorosilane R3SiCl can become involved in the initial DMF activation chemistry thereby forming the other disiloxanes observed as the reaction proceeds.
