Pyridine Functionalized N-Heterocyclic Silane Complexes of Iridium and Rhodium–An Unexpected Change in Coordination
Bibliographic record
Abstract
A new pyridine functionalized N-heterocyclic silane with ambident reactivity as a ligand has been synthesized and characterized by NMR spectroscopy ( 1 H, 13 C{ 1 H}, 29 Si), mass spectrometry, elemental analysis, and X-ray crystallography. This ligand reacts with iridium and rhodium cod precursors (cod = 1,5-cyclooctadiene) to yield two new complexes that possess divergent, and unexpected, binding properties. In particular, no oxidative addition occurs at the intraligand Si-H unit. With the iridium(I) center, the ligand acts as a tertiary amino-pyridine chelator, whereas coordination of rhodium(I) to the ligand occurs with arene π-complexation on an opposite side. The latter interaction yields an unprecedented, electronically induced, coordination change at the silicon center over a long spatial distance. The new iridium and rhodium compounds are of high interest as they provide two potentially different reactions sites in one complex and as these sorts of complexes are known to activate small molecules like dihydrogen or silanes. Hence, the compounds are promising candidates for applications in tandem catalysis. Furthermore, the rhodium complex might be utilized for molecular switches, sensors, and comparable applications.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
