Triphenylborane (BPh ) was found to catalyze the reduction of tertiary amides with hydrosilanes to give amines under mild condition with high chemoselectivity in the presence of ketones, esters, and imines. N,N-Dimethylacrylamide was reduced to provide the α-silyl amide. Preliminary studies indicate that the hydrosilylation catalyzed by BPh may be mechanistically different from that catalyzed by the more electrophilic B(C F ) .
三苯基硼(BPh )被发现可在温和条件下催化硅氢烷还原叔酰胺,在酮、酯和亚胺存在下具有高化学选择性得到胺。N,N-二甲基丙烯酰胺被还原为提供α-硅基酰胺。初步研究表明,BPh 催化的硅氢化反应可能在机理上不同于更亲电的 B(C F ) 催化的硅氢化反应。
