Complex OsH{κ-,,-[xant(PPr)]} () activates the Si-H bond of triethylsilane, triphenylsilane, and 1,1,1,3,5,5,5-heptamethyltrisiloxane to give the silyl-osmium(IV)-trihydride derivatives OsH(SiR){κ-,,-[xant(PPr)]} [SiR = SiEt (), SiPh (), SiMe(OSiMe) ()] and H. The activation takes place via an unsaturated tetrahydride intermediate, resulting from the dissociation of the oxygen atom of the pincer ligand 9,9-dimethyl-4,5-bis(diisopropylphosphino)xanthene (xant(PPr)). This intermediate, which has been trapped to form OsH{κ-,-[xant(PPr)]}(PPr) (), coordinates the Si-H bond of the silanes to subsequently undergo a homolytic cleavage. Kinetics of the reaction along with the observed primary isotope effect demonstrates that the Si-H rupture is the rate-determining step of the activation. Complex reacts with 1,1-diphenyl-2-propyn-1-ol and 1-phenyl-1-propyne. The reaction with the former affords Os{C≡CC(OH)Ph}{=C=CHC(OH)Ph}{κ-,,-[xant(PPr)]} (), which catalyzes the conversion of the propargylic alcohol into ()-2-(5,5-diphenylfuran-2()-ylidene)-1,1-diphenylethan-1-ol, via ()-enynediol. In methanol, the hydroxyvinylidene ligand of dehydrates to allenylidene, generating Os{C≡CC(OH)Ph}{=C=C=CPh}{κ-,,-[xant(PPr)]} (). The reaction of with 1-phenyl-1-propyne leads to OsH{κ-C,η-[CHCHCH=CH]}{κ-,,-[xant(PPr)]} () and PhCHCH=CH(SiEt).

The Schwartz's reagent Cp2Zr(H)Cl is a well known stoichiometric reagent for the reduction of unsaturated organic molecules but it has rarely been used in catalytic transformations. Herein, we describe the reduction of a variety of organic carbonates using the catalyst Cp2Zr(H)Cl in combination with Me(MeO)2SiH (DMMS) as reductant. This method was further applied to the reductive depolymerization of some polycarbonate materials and yielded silylated alcohols and diols in mild conditions.

The reduction of aryl carboxylates to methyl and allyl arene was attained using a well-defined cobalt catalyst. This catalytic transformation employs only a sub-stoichiometric amount of base, and diethylsilane as a reductant. Catalytic activation of the Si-H bond of the silanes, C-O bond of the ester, and silyl ether intermediates by cobalt is crucial to achieving exhaustive reduction.

Prediction of high- superconductivity in HSX below megabar pressure.

The discovery of high critical temperature in cubic HS under high pressures attracts significant attention. Of particular recent interest is to search for superconductors stabilized at low pressure in order to approach practical applications. To examine the doping effect on the stability and superconductivity of HS, we construct HSX by replacing half of the S atoms with an X atom (X = Si, Ge, Sn, P, As, Sb, Te, Cl, Br and I).

As a contracted porphyrin analogue, corrole shows a more acidic and trinegative/triprotic nature compared with porphyrin in the field of coordination chemistry. However, the direct introduction of corrole into a metal-organic framework is quite difficult due to its lower symmetry. Herein, we report the one-pot synthesis of a series of corrole and porphyrin-based multivariate porphyrinic metal-organic frameworks M(TCPC)@M-PCN-222 (M = Cu, Mn, FeCl; TCPC = 5,10,15-tris(4-carboxyphenyl) corrole; M = Co, Cu, Ni, FeCl) and applied them to the insertion of a Si-H bond with α-diazoacetates.

Polymers synthesized with end-of-life consideration allow for recovery and reprocessing. "Living-anionic polymerization (LAP)" and hydrosilylation reaction were utilized to synthesize hair-end furan functionalized hairy nanoparticles (HNPs) with a hard polystyrene (PS) core and soft polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) hairs via a one-pot approach. The synthesis was carried out by first preparing the living core through crosslinking styrene with divinylbenzene using sec-butyl lithium, followed by the addition of the hexamethylcyclotrisiloxane (D3) monomer to the living core.
