A well-defined and very active single-component manganese(II) catalyst system for the hydrosilylation of aldehydes and ketones is presented. First, the reaction of 5-(2,4,6-iPr3C6H2)-2-[N-(2,6-iPr2C6H3)formimino]pyrrolyl potassium (KL) and [MnCl2(Py)2] afforded the binuclear 2-iminopyrrolyl manganese(II) pyridine chloride complex [Mn2{κ2N,N′-5-(2,4,6-iPr3C6H2)-NC4H2-2-C(H)═N(2,6-iPr2C6H3)}2(Py)2(μ-Cl)2] 1. Subsequently, the alkylation reaction of complex 1 with LiCH2SiMe3 afforded the respective (trimethylsilyl)methyl-Mn(II) complex [Mn{κ2N,N′-5-(2,4,6-iPr3C6H2)-NC4H2-2-C(H)═N(2,6-iPr2C6H3)}(Py)CH2SiMe3] 2 in a good yield. Complexes 1 and 2 were characterized by elemental analysis, 1H NMR spectroscopy, Evans' method, FTIR spectroscopy, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. While the crystal structure of complex 1 has been identified as a binuclear entity, in which the Mn(II) centers present pentacoordinate coordination spheres, that of complex 2 corresponds to a monomer with a distorted tetrahedral coordination geometry. Complex 2 proved to be a very active precatalyst for the atom-economic hydrosilylation of several aldehydes and ketones under very mild conditions, with a maximum turnover frequency of 95 min-1, via a silyl-Mn(II) mechanistic route, as asserted by a combination of experimental and theoretical efforts, the respective silanes were cleanly converted to the respective alcoholic products in high yields.

Tris(2-pyridylthio)methyl zinc hydride, [κ3-Tptm]ZnH, is an effective catalyst for multiple insertions of carbonyl groups into the Si-H bonds of PhxSiH4-x (x = 1, 2). Specifically, [κ3-Tptm]ZnH catalyzes the insertion of a variety of aldehydes and ketones into the Si-H bonds of PhSiH3 and Ph2SiH2 to afford PhSi[OCH(R)R′]3 and Ph2Si[OCH(R)R′]2, respectively. The mechanism for hydrosilylation is proposed to involve insertion of the carbonyl group into the Zn-H bond to afford an alkoxy species, followed by metathesis with the silane to release the alkoxysilane and regenerate the zinc hydride catalyst. Multiple insertion of prochiral ketones results in the formation of diastereomeric mixtures of alkoxysilanes that can be identified by NMR spectroscopy.

A new series of tetramethylcyclopentadienyl-functionalised N-heterocyclic carbene complexes of iron bearing different wingtips of general type (Cp?-NHCR)Fe(CO)I (R = nBu, iBu, Et, CH2CH2OMe, CH2Ph) were prepared by direct reaction of Fe3(CO)12 and the corresponding imidazolium proligands. These new iron-NHC complexes have been found to be efficient catalysts for the dehydrogenative silylation of alcohols with silanes. Iron metal complexes bearing iso-butyl and n-butyl wingtips displayed slightly better catalytic performances than the related complexes (Cp?-NHCR)Fe(CO)I (R = Et, CH2CH2OMe, CH2Ph), affording quantitative yields of the corresponding silylethers in 8 h at 70 °C in acetonitrile.
