Spectroscopic investigation of the reactivity of Cp*Ru(PiPr2Ph)X toward H2 and silanes: Formation in solution of Cp*Ru(PiPr2Ph)(H)3 and Cp*Ru(PiPr2Ph)(H)2Y (Y = Halide, OR, and SiR′3)

Reaction of Cp*RuLX (L = PiPr2Ph; X = Br, I, OSiPh3, NHPh, and OCH2CF3, called ORf) with H2 gives, at -60 °C, Cp*RuLX(H)2, where the two hydride ligands are assigned cisoid positions using 1H NMR spectra. These molecules (except X = Br and I) react with additional H2 to give Cp*RuL(H)3 and liberate HX. Mechanistic possibilities are discussed. Reaction of Cp*RuL(ORf) with HSiR3 (R = Me, Ph, OMe) gives Cp*RuL(H)2SiR3 and (RfO)SiR3. Reaction of Cp*RuL(ORf) with H2SiPh2 gives the two products Cp*RuL(H)2(SiXPh2) (X = H and ORf). Reversible equilibria make these species unstable toward isolation. Mechanistic studies are consistent with the presence of a common intermediate, for which H2SiPh2 and HSi(ORf)Ph2 compete.

EFFECTS OF VARYING THE MEDIA FOR BASE CLEAVAGE OF SOME BENZYL-SILICON AND-TIN COMPOUNDS IN ALCOHOLS

The effects on the rates of cleavage of 3-ClC6H4CH2MMe3 and 3,5-Cl2C6H3CH2MMe3 compounds with M = Si and Sn have been examined for (a) various concentrations of NaOMe-MeOH; (b) various concentrations of H2O in NaOH-H2O-MeOH; and (c) variation of R from Me to Et, i-Pr and t-Bu for metal alkoxide-ROH mixtures.Rates have also been measured for cleavages in NaOCH2CF3HOCH2CF3-Me2SO.In all cases there are differences in behaviour between the silicon and tin compounds which are consistent with the postulated difference in the mechanisms of their reactions.
