1,1,3,3-Tetramethyldisiloxane (TMDS) is a highly reactive reducing reagent in the Au/TiO2-catalyzed hydrosilylation of carbonyl compounds relative to monohydrosilanes. The reduction of aldehydes or ketones with TMDS can be performed on many occasions at ambient conditions within short reaction times and at low loading levels of gold, whereas typical monohydrosilanes require excess heating and prolonged time for completion. The product yields are excellent, while almost stoichiometric amounts of carbonyl compounds and TMDS can be used. It is postulated that the enhanced reactivity of TMDS is attributed to the formation of a gold dihydride intermediate. This intermediate is also supported by the fact that double hydrosilylation of carbonyl compounds by TMDS is a negligible pathway.

Two recently reported air- and water-stable di-Rh complexes based on 1,3-bis(3′-butylbenzimidazol-2′-ylidene)benzene were utilized as catalysts for hydrosilylation. Among the substrates investigated were aldehydes, ketones, α,β-unsaturated carbonyls, acyl chlorides, nitriles, alkenes, nitro groups, isocyanates, and tertiary amides. Additionally, carbon dioxide underwent hydrosilylation to produce dimethylphenylsilylformate. The catalysts compared well to other previously reported hydrosilylation catalysts, and the Rh-Cl catalyst was found to be faster and more selective than the Rh-I complex in each case.

Reduction of aldehydes and ketones with hydrosilanes proceeded in the presence of a catalytic amount of tetrabutylammonium fluoride or tris(diethylamino)sulfonium difluorotrimethylsilicate in aprotic polar solvents under mild conditions.A significant isotope effect (kH/kD = 1.50) was observed in competitive reduction of acetophenone with HSiMe2Ph and DSiMe2Ph.The reaction was of first order in the concentration of an aprotic polar solvent HMPA.Reduction of 2-methylcyclohexanone gave cis-2-methylcyclohexanol with selectivities up to 95percent.The kinetic and stereochemical results suggest that a hexavalent fluorosilicate - is involved. α-Alkoxy (acyloxy or dimethylamino) ketones were transformed to threo alcohols in high diastereoselectivities.The reduction was also applied to α-methyl-β-keto amides, RCOCH(MeCONR)2, to afford the corresponding threo alcohols in >98percent selectivity.The threo selectivity is explained in terms of the Felkin-Anh model in which interaction of carbonyl oxygen with a countercation is ideally suppressed.The threo-directed reduction was applied to (R)-1-phenyl-4-(2-tetrahydropyranyloxy)-1-penten-3-one and N-(2-benzoylpropanoyl)piperidine.The resulting threo alcohols were respectively converted into (2R,3S)-2,3-(cyclohexylidenedioxy)butanal, a key intermediate of daunosamine synthesis, and into a pharmacologically useful compound threo-N-(3-hydroxy-2-methyl-3-phenylpropyl)piperidine.
