Remarkably high catalyst efficiency of a disilaruthenacyclic complex for hydrosilane reduction of carbonyl compounds

Abstract

A disilaruthenacyclic complex (1) showed extremely high catalytic activity for hydrosilane reduction of aldehydes and ketones to silyl ethers and secondary and tertiary amides to the corresponding amines. An σ-CAM mechanism was proposed to explain the activity.
