We have developed a nickel-catalyzed transformation, in which phthalimides react with trimethylsilyl-substituted alkynes in the presence of Ni(0)/PMe3/MAD catalyst to provide isoindolinones. The reaction process displays an unusual mechanistic feature-decarbonylation and alkylidenation. The use of both trimethylsilyl-substiuted alkynes and MAD was found to be essential for the transformation with high selectivities.

CpZrCl - EtAl reagent system in the homo-coupling of trimethylsilyl-substituted alkynes.
RSC Adv
December 2021
The reaction of trimethylsilyl-substituted alkynes with 0.5 equivalents of CpZrCl and 1 equivalent of EtAl in toluene at room temperature for 18 hours gives, after hydrolysis/deuterolysis or iodination, functionalized products of the homo-coupling of silyl-substituted alkynes in good yield. Trimethylsilyl-substituted α,ω-diynes react with the CpZrCl - EtAl reagent system to give (1,2)-1,2-bis(iodo(trimethylsilyl)methylene)cycloalkanes after iodinolysis.

The synthesis of a series of 5-(alkynyl) dibenzothiophenium triflates, prepared from dibenzo[b,d]thiophene 5-oxide and the corresponding trimethylsilyl-substituted alkynes is reported. Their structures were determined by X-ray crystallography, and their reactivities as electrophilic alkynylation reagents evaluated. Their broad substrate scope and functional-group tolerance illustrate their potential to become an alternative to the broadly used EBX reagents.

Multisubstituted tropanes and indolizidines have been prepared with high regio- and stereoselectivity by the [3+2] cycloaddition of unstabilized azomethine ylides generated from readily prepared trimethylsilyl-substituted 1,2-dihydropyridines via protonation or alkylation followed by desilylation. Starting from 1,2-dihydropyridines bearing a ring trimethylsilyl substituent at the 6-position, an intermolecular alkylation/desilylation provides endocyclic unstabilized ylides that successfully undergo cycloaddition with a range of symmetrical and unsymmetrical alkyne and alkene dipolarophiles to afford densely substituted tropanes incorporating quaternary carbons in good yields and with high regio- and stereoselectivity. Additionally, an intramolecular alkylation/desilylation/cycloaddition sequence provides convenient and rapid entry to bridged tricyclic tropane skeletons, allowing for five contiguous carbon stereocenters to be set in a single experimental operation and under mild conditions.

The cobalt-catalyzed Diels-Alder reaction of trimethylsilyl-substituted alkynes with 1,3-dienes led to dihydroaromatic intermediates which were transformed into iodobenzene derivatives. For this transformation, the dihydroaromatic intermediates had to be oxidized and the trimethylsilyl-substituted arene had to undergo a silicon-iodine exchange reaction. For this purpose, a number of oxidizing agents and iodonium sources were tested in order to realize the desired two transformations in a single step.

A three-coordinate cobalt(I) complex exhibits high catalytic efficiency and selectivity as well as good functional group compatibility in alkyne hydrosilylation. [Co(IAd)(PPh3)(CH2TMS)] (1) (IAd = 1,3-diadamantylimidazol-2-ylidene) facilitates regio- and stereoselective hydrosilylation of terminal, symmetrical internal, and trimethylsilyl-substituted unsymmetrical internal alkynes to produce single hydrosilylation products in the forms of β-(E)-silylalkenes, (E)-silylalkenes, and (Z)-α,α-disilylalkenes, respectively, in high yields. The comparable catalytic efficiency and selectivity of the Co(I) silyl complex [Co(IAd)(PPh3)(SiHPh2)] that was prepared from the reaction of 1 with H2SiPh2, and the isolation of an alkyne Co(I) complex [Co(IAd)(η(2)-PhC≡CPh)(CH2TMS)] from the reaction of 1 with the acetylene, point out a modified Chalk-Harrod catalytic cycle for these hydrosilylation reactions.
