Markovnikov Hydrosilylation of Alkynes with Tertiary Silanes Catalyzed by Dinuclear Cobalt Carbonyl Complexes with NHC Ligation

Metal-catalyzed hydrosilylation of alkynes is an ideal atom-economic method to prepare vinylsilanes that are useful reagents in the organic synthesis and silicone industry. Although great success has been made in the preparation of β-vinylsilanes by metal-catalyzed hydrosilylation reactions of alkynes, reported metal-catalyzed reactions for the synthesis of α-vinylsilanes suffer from narrow substrate scope and/or poor selectivity. Herein, we present selective Markovnikov hydrosilylation reactions of terminal alkynes with tertiary silanes using a dicobalt carbonyl N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complex [(IPr)2Co2(CO)6] (IPr = 1,3-di(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imidazol-2-ylidene) as catalyst. This cobalt catalyst effects the hydrosilylation of both alkyl- and aryl-substituted terminal alkynes with a variety of tertiary silanes with good functional group compatibility, furnishing α-vinylsilanes with high yields and high α/β selectivity. Mechanistic study revealed that the stoichiometric reactions of [(IPr)2Co2(CO)6] with PhCCH and HSiEt3 can furnish the dinuclear cobalt alkyne and mononuclear cobalt silyl complexes [(IPr)(CO)2Co(μ-ν2:ν2-HCCPh)Co(CO)3], [(IPr)(CO)2Co(μ- ν2:ν2-HCCPh)Co(CO)2(IPr)], and [(IPr)Co(CO)3(SiEt3)], respectively. Both dicobalt bridging alkyne complexes can react with HSiEt3 to yield α-triethylsilyl styrene and effect the catalytic Markovnikov hydrosilylation reaction. However, the mono(NHC) dicobalt complex [(IPr)(CO)2Co(μ- ν2:ν2-HCCPh)Co(CO)3] exhibits higher catalytic activity over the di(NHC)-dicobalt complexes. The cobalt silyl complex [(IPr)Co(CO)3(SiEt3)] is ineffective in catalyzing the hydrosilylation reaction. Deuterium labeling experiments with PhCCD and DSiEt3 indicates the syn-addition nature of the hydrosilylation reaction. The absence of deuterium scrambling in the hydrosilylation products formed from the catalytic reaction of PhCCH with a mixture of DSiEt3 and HSi(OEt)3 hints that mononuclear cobalt species are less likely the in-cycle species. These observations, in addition to the evident of nonsymmetric Co2C2-butterfly core in the structure of [(IPr)(CO)2Co(μ- ν2:ν2-HCCPh)Co(CO)3], point out that mono(IPr)-dicobalt species are the genuine catalysts for the cobalt-catalyzed hydrosilylation reaction and that the high α selectivity of the catalytic system originates from the joint play of the dicobalt carbonyl species to coordinate alkynes in the Co(μ- ν2:ν2-HCCR′)Co mode and the steric demanding nature of IPr ligand.

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.

A Ligand-Free Pt3Cluster Catalyzes the Markovnikov Hydrosilylation of Alkynes with up to 106Turnover Frequencies

The Pt-catalyzed hydrosilylation of alkynes is the procedure of choice to obtain vinylsilanes, and is claimed to be the most relevant application of Pt in organic synthesis. More than half a century after its discovery, only β-vinylsilanes (anti-Markovnikov addition) are obtained with simple Pt catalysts, whereas α-vinylsilanes (Markovnikov addition) remain elusive compounds. Here the catalysis of the Markovnikov hydrosilylation of terminal alkynes by Pt3clusters, in parts-per-million amounts, to give a wide variety of α-vinylsilanes in reasonable isolated yields and with turnover frequencies that can reach up to one million per hour is reported. Moreover, these α-vinylsilanes are reactive in well-stablished C?C bond-forming cascade reactions, in which the corresponding β-isomers are unreactive. Besides its efficiency and synthetic usefulness, this catalytic system is an excellent example of how the atom-by-atom aggregation of a catalytic metal leads to a different selectivity for a given reaction.

Inverse regioselectivity in the silylstannylation of alkynes and allenes: Copper-catalyzed three-component coupling with a silylborane and a tin alkoxide

Silylstannylation of alkynes and allenes has been found to proceed by three-component coupling using a silylborane and a tin alkoxide in the presence of a Cu(i) catalyst. The regioselectivities are completely inverse to those of the conventional silylstannylation under palladium catalysis.

New organoplatinum (IV) complex with quaterpyridine ligand: Synthesis, structure and its catalytic activity in the hydrosilylation of styrene and terminal alkynes

The reaction of ligand L with PtCl2 leads to a novel structural motif of octahedral ortho-metalated complex of formula [Pt(L-H) Cl3] 1. This result is a consequence of drastic conditions of reaction and preferred Pt(IV) octahedral coordination geometry. The new compound has been characterised on the basis of the spectroscopic data in solution, and its structure confirmed in the solid state by X-ray crystallography (1a - [Pt(L-H)Cl3]·MeOH, 1b - [Pt(L-H)Cl 3]·C6H5CH3). This article reports organoplatinum (IV) complex 1 as effective and highly selective catalyst precursor in the hydrosilylation of styrene and terminal alkynes.
