Reaction of a phosphinobenzylsilane compound with ruthenium complexes leads to C-H and/or Si-H activation. The new complex Ru{eta(2)-H-SiMe2CH(o-C(6)H(4))PPh2}2 (5) was isolated and X-ray, NMR and DFT studies reveal that 5 displays two agostic Si-H interactions and two carbon-metallated bonds.

The Si-H···Se contact in 1-mesitylselanyl-8-(dimethylsilyl)naphthalene (), which exhibits the spatial arrangement of a δ-agostic interaction from geometric considerations, was investigated. Is this just enforced by close 1,8-proximity or is this a favorable interaction? Charge density studies are best suited to investigate the exact origin of the interaction and to quantify the properties. Hence, they are most elucidating.

The rare-earth metal complexes Ln(L )[N(SiHMe ) ](thf) (Ln=La, Ce, Y; L =N,N''-bis(pentafluorophenyl)diethylenetriamine dianion) were synthesized by treating Ln[N(SiHMe ) ] (thf) with L H . The lanthanum and cerium derivatives are active catalysts for the hydrosilylation of benzophenone derivatives with HN(SiHMe ) . An amine-exchange reaction was revealed as a key step of the catalytic cycle, in which Ln-Si-H β-agostic interactions are proposed to promote insertion of the carbonyl moiety into the Si-H bond.

A proximity enforcing diarylsilane ligand is reported, which gives rise to unusual Si-H···M interactions with the d metal ions Cu and Ag upon complexation. These interactions are studied in detail both experimentally and computationally and can be classified to be weakly agostic in nature for the Si-H···Cu interaction. The Si-H···Ag interaction has more signatures of an electrostatic contact.

In the solid state, the dinuclear iridium complex [μ-Cl-Ir(SiMeCH-o-CH)PPh], 1, is shown by X-ray diffraction to bear dibenzylsilylphosphine ligands in SiPSi tridentate coordination modes as well as chloride bridges. In CD solution, 1 dissociates into the 14-electron species [IrCl(SiMeCH-o-CH)PPh] prone to coordinate one or two L-type ligands such as PR (R = Cy, Ph, OEt), CO and CHCN giving rise to the corresponding mononuclear 16- or 18-electron complexes [IrCl(SiMeCH-o-CH)PPh(L)] (x = 1, 2) as evidenced by X-ray and NMR studies. The dinuclear structure is retained upon reaction with EtSiH which results in the formation of [μ-Cl,μ-H-Ir{(SiMeCH-o-CH)PPh}] with a bridging hydride.

Platinum complexes [Pt(NHC')(NHC)][BAr ] (in which NHC' denotes a cyclometalated N-heterocyclic carbene ligand, NHC) react with primary silanes RSiH to afford the cyclometalated platinum(II) silyl complexes [Pt(NHC-SiHR')(NHC)][BAr ] through a process that involves the formation of C-Si and Pt-Si bonds with concomitant extrusion of H . Low-temperature NMR studies indicate that the process proceeds through initial formation of the σ-SiH complexes [Pt(NHC')(NHC)(HSiH R)][BAr ], which are stable at temperatures below -10 °C. At higher temperatures, activation of one Si-H bond followed by a C-Si coupling reaction generates an agostic SiH platinum hydride derivative [Pt(H)(NHC'-SiH R)(NHC)][BAr ], which undergoes a second Si-H bond activation to afford the final products.
