摘要
A dicobalt complex catalyzes N-2 silylation with Me3SiCl and KC8 under 1 atm N-2 at ambient temperature. Tris(trimethylsilyl)amine is formed with an initial turnover rate of 1 N(TMS)3/min, ultimately reaching a turnover number of similar to 200. The dicobalt species features a metal-metal interaction, which we postulate is important to its function. Although N-2 functionalization occurs at a single cobalt site, the second cobalt center modifies the electronics at the active site. Density functional calculations reveal that the Co-Co interaction evolves during the catalytic cycle: weakening upon N-2 binding, breaking with silylation of the metal-bound N-2 and reforming with expulsion of [N-2(SiMe3)(3)](-).
