Published: October 2020

An efficient one-pot strategy for easy access to 3-silyl heterocyclic compounds was developed via a B(CF)-catalyzed cycloaddition reaction of o-(1-alkynyl)(thio)anisoles or o-(1-alkynyl)-N-methylaniline. In this reaction, benzenethiophene, benzofuran or indole skeletons could be constructed by an intermolecular cyclization with diphenylsilane. This protocol elicited moderate-to-good yields with metal-free reaction systems.

Reactions of cyclic thioureas (1,3,4,5-tetramethylimidazol-2-thione and 1,3-dimethylimidazolidin-2-thione) and ureas (1,3,4,5-tetramethylimidazol-2-one and 1,3-dimethylimidazolidin-2-one) with an isolable dialkylsilylene were examined. In these reactions, cyclic thioureas served as sulfur and NHC (N-heterocyclic carbene) sources, and the corresponding silanethione and NHC-derived products formed via silanethione-NHC complexes. Reactions of cyclic ureas with the silylene afforded a new NHC and an isolable azomethine ylide.

A long-term dream comes true: An acyclic, neutrally charged silanone at last! Here, we report on the first examples of isolable acyclic, neutral, three-coordinate silanones 2 with indefinite stability as solids and lifetimes in solution of up to 2 days. The electronic properties of the Si═O bond were investigated via DFT calculations and revealed the π-donating N-heterocyclic imino (NHI) and σ-donating silyl groups as key factors for their enhanced stability. Besides initial reactivity studies of 2 toward CO and methanol, different isomerization pathways depending on the silyl substitution pattern were found.
