Si–H activation by means of metal ligand cooperation in a methandiide derived carbene complex

Abstract

Si–H bond activation of a number of silanes via metal ligand cooperation in a carbene complex is reported. Thereby, the electronic flexibility of the carbene ligand allows for the activation via a unique mechanism with oxidative addition to an 18e species without a formal change in the number of valence electrons.
