Abstract
Scandium tris(o-aminobenzyl) complex Sc(o-CH2C6H4NMe2)3 (1) and its cationic derivative [Sc(o-CH2C6H4NMe2)2][B(C6F5)4] (2) catalyze the dehydrocoupling of alkoxyarenes with various aromatic hydrosilanes in toluene at 90 °C to give C-H silylation products in 15–89% yields (24 h). The product yield depends on the nature and the ratio of the substrates, and the new carbon-silicon bond is formed only in the ortho-position relative to the alkoxy substituent in the aromatic ring. Cationic complex 2 proved to be a much more active catalyst for dehydrocoupling than neutral complex 1 and provides substrate conversion of 55–89% versus 15–45%. According to NMR spectroscopy data, complex 1 reacts with both substrates in the catalytic reaction. The reaction of 1 with anisole is accompanied by ortho-metallation of the latter and gives the complex (o-CH2C6H4NMe2)2Sc(o-C6H4OMe) (4), whereas the reaction with PhSiH3 affords the hydride [Sc(o-CH2C6H4NMe2)2H] (5). The successive reactions of 1 with [Ph3C][B(C6F5)4] and anisole (1:1:1 molar ratio) result in the formation of the cationic complex [(o-CH2C6H4NMe2)Sc(o-C6H4OMe)]+[B(C6F5)4]− (6).
