Silylene Complexes as Reactive Intermediates

reactive silylene complexes of iron and chromium can be generated at low temperatures and subsequently derivatized by trapping reagents. In THF as solvent, first labile THF adducts are formed, which are converted to the more stable HMPA adducts. The THF complexes dimerize above —40 °C with loss of THF. The silylene complexes can be utilized for reactions if they are generated in the presence of reagents like dimethylcarbonate. The resulting reaction products [Pg.28]

Similar results were obtained by Ogino and co-workers. After the initial cleavage of the CO from the metal, a silyl group migration occurs. It was shown by cross experiments that in this case the silyl substituent migrates and not the silylene. In a subsequent step, the silylene is then displaced by CO. Unfortunately, no trapping experiments of the silylenes in solution have been reported. [Pg.29]

4 The Formation of SiSi Bonds from Silanes in the Presence of a Hydrosilation [Pg.30]

In 1971, a short communication was published [54] by Kumada and co-workers reporting the formation of di- and polysilanes from dihydrosilanes by the action of a platinum complex. Also the Wilkinson catalyst (Ph3P)3RhCl promotes hydrosilation. If no alkenes are present, formation of chain silanes occurs. A thorough analysis of the product distribution shows a high preference for polymers (without a catalyst, disproportionation reactions of the silanes prevail). Cross experiments indicate the formation of a silylene complex as intermediate and in solution, free silylenes could also be trapped by Et3SiH [55, 56], [Pg.30]

Recently, this work has been extended and further developed by Brown-Wensley into a preparative method for the synthesis of disilanes. The results of competitive reactions with several silanes allow insight into the reaction kinetics, in particular the relative rates of disilane formation versus hydrosilation (Table 5a, b) [61]. [Pg.30]
