An efficient method for the coupling of N-alkylamines with silicon enolates to generate β-amino carbonyl compounds is disclosed. These reactions proceed by activation of α-amino C-H bonds by B(C6F5)3, which likely generate

A dearomatized PN3P?-nickel hydride complex has been prepared using an oxidative addition process. The first nickel-catalyzed hydrosilylation of CO2 to methanol has been achieved, with unprecedented turnover numbers. Selective methylation and formylation of amines with CO2 were demonstrated by such a PN3P?-nickel hydride complex, highlighting its versatile functions in CO2 reduction.

The formylation and methylation of amines with carbon dioxide and hydrosilanes are emerging yet important types of transformations for CO2. Catalytic methods effective for both reactions with wide substrate scopes are rare because of the difficulty in controlling the selectivity. Herein, we report that simple and readily available inorganic bases alkali-metal carbonates, especially cesium carbonatecatalyze both the formylation and methylation reactions efficiently under mild conditions. The selectivity can be conveniently controlled by varying the reaction temperature and silane. A “cesium effect” on both reactions was observed by comparing the catalytic activity of various alkali-metal carbonates. Combined experimental and computational studies suggested the following reaction mechanism: (i) activation of Si?H by Cs2CO3, (ii) insertion of CO2 into Si?H, (iii) formylation of amines by silyl formate, and (iv) reduction of formamides to methylamines.
