concentration of an activated silane adduct which is the species responsible for catalytic turnover. A similar mechanism was found for both cationic and neutral Re(III) species. Further, it was shown by tuning the electrophilicity of the rhenium catalysts, conditions can be found that would enable the catalytic hydrosilylation of ketone and nitrile substrates that were unreactive in previously reported
通过DFT(B3PW91-D3)计算了M(C 6 F 5)3(M = B,Al和Ga)对羰基底物的催化氢化
硅烷化的途径,结果表明,在Al试剂的情况下,羰基底物不可逆地结合,并通过生成稳定的羰基加合物来抑制催化作用。相反,B(C 6 F 5)3的降低的亲电性不利于羰基底物的结合,并增加了活化的
硅烷加合物的浓度,后者是引起催化转化的物质。发现阳离子和中性Re(III)的物种。此外,通过调节the催化剂的亲电性表明,发现了能够使酮和腈底物催化氢化
硅烷化的条件,这些酮和腈底物在先前报道的系统中没有反应性。因此,这项工作中提出的机理为新催化体系的设计奠定了基础。
