Hypervalent hydridosilicates: Synthesis, structure and hydride bridging

A range of hydridosilicate anions has been prepared and characterised by spectroscopic, structural and computational methods. The general approach involved reaction of KH with a neutral silane precursor in the presence of [18]crown-6. In this manner, [K([

Ruthenium Complex-catalysed Selective Redistribution Reaction of Aryltrihydrosilanes and Desilanative Polymerization of Bis(trihydrosilyl)benzenes

Ruthenium complexes catalyse desilanative condensation of bis(trihydrosilyl)benzenes to give polys, a new class of organic-inorganic hybrid polymers that allow numerous transformations.

Gold(I) complexes with chloro(diaryl)silyl ligand. Stoichiometric reactions and catalysis for O-functionalization of organosilane

An Au(I) complex with a chloro(diphenyl)silyl ligand [Au(SiPh2Cl)(PCy3)] (1a) is obtained from the reaction of Ph2SiH2 with [AuCl(PCy3)]. (4-FC6H4)2SiH2, (4-MeC6H4)2SiH2, and Ph2GeH2 react with [AuCl(PCy3)] to form complexes with the chlorodiarylsilyl ligand, [Au(SiAr2Cl)(PCy3)] (1b: Ar = C6H4-4-F, 1c: Ar = C6H4-4-Me) and with the chloro(diphenyl)germyl ligand, [Au(GePh2Cl)(PCy3)] (2a), respectively. Complex 1a reacts with H2O to form Ph2SiH(OH) and (Ph2SiH)2O, whereas the reaction of EtOH with 1a yields Ph2SiH(OEt) exclusively. Complex 1a catalyzes the hydrolysis of Ph2SiH2 ([Au]:[H2SiPh2]:[H2O] = 0.05:1.0:10.0) at 60 °C to yield Ph2SiH(OH) and (Ph2SiH)2O. The reaction of Ph2SiH2 with HOEt in the presence of a catalytic amount of 1a affords Ph2SiH(OEt). Both stoichiometric and catalytic reactions using 1a lead to the recovery of [AuCl(PCy3)] from the reaction mixture.

Highly selective redistribution of primary arylsilanes to secondary arylsilanes catalyzed by Ln(CH2C6H4NMe2-: O)3@SBA-15

Rare-earth metal tris(aminobenzyl) complexes Ln(CH2C6H4NMe2-o)3 (Ln = La, Y) were grafted onto the dehydroxylated periodic mesoporous silica support SBA-15 to generate the organometallic-inorganic hybrid materials Ln(CH2C6H4NMe2-o)3@SBA-15 (Ln = La (2a), Y (2b)), which demonstrated extremely high selectivity (>99%) in catalyzing the redistribution of primary arylsilanes to secondary arylsilanes without the requisition of strict control of the reaction conditions. The hybrid materials still showed a perfect selectivity and activity after three catalytic cycles.
