Hydrogenation of chlorosilanes by NaBH4

Hydrogenation of chlorosilane was achieved in acetonitrile using NaBH4, a safe and easy-to-handle reagent. This reaction converted Si-Cl portion(s) in organosilanes into Si-H portion(s) without hydrogenation of cyano, chloro, and aldehyde groups on an alkyl substituent of the Si reagents. In addition, the Si-Cl/Si-H exchange reaction was applicable to dichlorodisilane without Si-Si bond cleavage.

Hypervalent silicon hydrides: evidence for their intermediacy in the exchange reactions of di- and tri-hydrogenosilanes catalysed by hydrides (NaH, KH and LiAlH4)

Di and tri-hydrogenosilanes, RR'SiH2 and RSiH3 (R=aryl, allyl or benzyl; R'=aryl or alkyl), readily undergo exchange reactions, involving silicon-carbon bonds and silicon-hydrogen bonds, in the presence of hydrides (LiAlH4, KH and NaH) as catalysts.These results are discussed in terms of five-coordinate silicon hydrides as intermediates in the reaction.
