Ruthenium-Catalyzed C(sp <sup>2</sup> )–H Activation Using Pyridine and Imidazopyridine as Directing Groups for Selective Silylation
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Ruthenium-catalyzed C(sp 2 )–H activation using pyridine and imidazopyridine directing groups enables direct ortho-silylation of 2-arylimidazoheterocycles with hydrosilanes as silylation reagents. This method achieves regioselective C(sp 2 )–H silylation without the need for preactivation, affording ortho-silylated arylimidazo[1,2- a ]pyridines in high yields. Notably, this represents the first example of hydrosilane coupling with imidazo[1,2- a ]pyridines via pentacyclometalated intermediates. The scalable protocol is compatible with a broad range of 2-aryl nitrogen-containing heterocycles. Experimental studies support the proposed catalytic cycle, and downstream derivatization reactions highlight the synthetic utility of the products. Furthermore, long-term cycling tests of NCM811||Li cells demonstrate that the silylated product, used as an electrolyte additive, significantly improves the cathode-electrolyte interfacial stability.

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.
