Rh(III)-Catalysed solvent-free hydrodehalogenation of alkyl halides by tertiary silanes

2018 
Efficient catalytic reduction of CDCl3 and other alkyl halides, including persistent organic pollutants, by different tertiary silanes using the unsaturated silyl-hydrido-Rh(III) complex {Rh(H)[SiMe2(o-C6H4SMe)](PPh3)2}[BArF4] as a pre-catalyst is accomplished. The reactions are performed in a solvent-free manner. On account of experimental evidence, a simplified catalytic cycle is suggested for the hydrodehalogenation of CDCl3.
