Definitions

  • This invention relates generally to transition metal-containing compounds, more specifically to cobalt complexes containing terpyridine ligands and their use as catalysts for hydrosilylation and dehydrogenative silylation reactions.
  • Hydrosilylation chemistry typically involving a reaction between a silyl hydride and an unsaturated organic group, is the basis for synthetic routes to produce commercial silicone -based products like silicone surfactants, silicone fluids and silanes as well as many addition cured products like sealants, adhesives, and coatings.
  • Typical hydrosilylation reactions use precious metal catalysts to catalyze the addition of a silyl-hydride (Si-H) to an unsaturated group, such as an olefin.
  • Si-H silyl-hydride
  • an unsaturated group such as an olefin
  • the resulting product is a silyl-substituted, saturated compound.
  • the addition of the silyl group proceeds in an anti-Markovnikov manner, i.e., to the less substituted carbon atom of the unsaturated group.
  • hydrosilylations only work well with terminally unsaturated olefins, as internal unsaturations are generally non-reactive or only poorly reactive.
  • This reaction termed a dehydrogenative silylation, has potential uses in the synthesis of new silicone materials, such as silanes, silicone fluids, crosslinked silicone elastomers, and silylated or silicone-crosslinked organic polymers such as polyolefms, unsaturated polyesters, and the like.
  • Various precious metal complex catalysts are known in the art including a platinum complex containing unsaturated siloxanes as ligands, which is known in the art as Karstedt's catalyst.
  • Other platinum-based hydrosilylation catalysts include Ashby's catalyst, Lamoreaux's catalyst, and Speier's catalyst.
  • U.S. Patent No. 5,955,555 discloses the synthesis of certain iron or cobalt pyridine di-imine (PDI) complexes bearing two anionic ligands. The preferred anions are chloride, bromide, and tetrafluoroborate.
  • U.S. Patent No. 7,442,819 discloses iron and cobalt complexes of certain tricyclic ligands containing a "pyridine" ring substituted with two imino groups.
  • U.S. Patent Nos. 6,461,994, 6,657,026 and 7,148,304 disclose several catalyst systems containing certain transitional metal-PDI complexes.
  • 7,053,020 discloses a catalyst system containing, inter alia, one or more bisarylimino pyridine iron or cobalt catalyst. Chirik et al describe bisarylimino pyridine cobalt complexes with anionic ligands (Inorg. Chem. 2010, 49, 6110 and JACS. 2010, 132, 1676.) However, the catalysts and catalyst systems disclosed in these references are described for use in the context of olefin hydrogenation, polymerizations and/or oligomerisations, not in the context of dehydrogenative silylation reactions.
  • U.S. Patent No. 8,236,915 discloses hydrosilylation using Mn, Fe, Co, and Ni catalysts containing pyridinediimine ligands. However, these catalysts are sensitive to air and must be handled in a glove box.
  • homogeneous metal catalysts suffer from the drawback that following consumption of the first charge of substrates, the catalytically active metal is lost to aggregation and agglomeration and its beneficial catalytic properties are substantially diminished via colloid formation or precipitation. This is a costly loss, especially for noble metals such as Pt.
  • Heterogeneous catalysts are used to alleviate this problem but have limited use for polymers and also have lower activity than homogeneous counterparts.
  • the two primary homogeneous catalysts for hydrosilylation, Speier's and Karstedt's often lose activity after catalyzing a charge of olefin and silyl- or siloxyhydride reaction. If a single charge of the homogeneous catalyst could be re -used for multiple charges of substrates, then catalyst and process cost advantages would be significant.

COBALT CATALYSTS AND THEIR USE
FOR HYDROSILYLATION AND DEHYDROGENATIVE SILYLATION
CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS
[0001] This application claims priority to U. S. Provisional Application No. 61/906,204, filed on November 19, 2013 entitled "Cobalt Catalysts and Their Use for Hydrosilylation and Dehydrogenative Silylation" and U.S. Provisional Application No. 62/031 ,463 filed on July 31 , 2014 entitled "Terpyridine Cobalt Complexes and Their Use as Catalysts," the entire disclosures of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entireties.
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
[0002] This invention relates generally to transition metal-containing compounds, more specifically to cobalt complexes containing terpyridine ligands and their use as catalysts for hydrosilylation and dehydrogenative silylation reactions.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0003] Hydrosilylation chemistry, typically involving a reaction between a silyl hydride and an unsaturated organic group, is the basis for synthetic routes to produce commercial silicone -based products like silicone surfactants, silicone fluids and silanes as well as many addition cured products like sealants, adhesives, and coatings. Typical hydrosilylation reactions use precious metal catalysts to catalyze the addition of a silyl-hydride (Si-H) to an unsaturated group, such as an olefin. In these reactions, the resulting product is a silyl-substituted, saturated compound. In most of these cases, the addition of the silyl group proceeds in an anti-Markovnikov manner, i.e., to the less substituted carbon atom of the unsaturated group. Most precious metal catalyzed
hydrosilylations only work well with terminally unsaturated olefins, as internal unsaturations are generally non-reactive or only poorly reactive. There are currently only limited commercially viable methods for the general silylation of olefins where after the addition of the Si-H group there still remains an unsaturation in the original substrate. This reaction, termed a dehydrogenative silylation, has potential uses in the synthesis of new silicone materials, such as silanes, silicone fluids, crosslinked silicone elastomers, and silylated or silicone-crosslinked organic polymers such as polyolefms, unsaturated polyesters, and the like.
[0004] Various precious metal complex catalysts are known in the art including a platinum complex containing unsaturated siloxanes as ligands, which is known in the art as Karstedt's catalyst. Other platinum-based hydrosilylation catalysts include Ashby's catalyst, Lamoreaux's catalyst, and Speier's catalyst.
[0005] Other metal-based catalysts have been explored including, for example, rhodium complexes, iridium complexes, palladium complexes and even first-row transition metal-based catalysts to promote limited hydrosilylations and dehydrogenative silylations.
[0006] U.S. Patent No. 5,955,555 discloses the synthesis of certain iron or cobalt pyridine di-imine (PDI) complexes bearing two anionic ligands. The preferred anions are chloride, bromide, and tetrafluoroborate. U.S. Patent No. 7,442,819 discloses iron and cobalt complexes of certain tricyclic ligands containing a "pyridine" ring substituted with two imino groups. U.S. Patent Nos. 6,461,994, 6,657,026 and 7,148,304 disclose several catalyst systems containing certain transitional metal-PDI complexes. U.S. Patent No. 7,053,020 discloses a catalyst system containing, inter alia, one or more bisarylimino pyridine iron or cobalt catalyst. Chirik et al describe bisarylimino pyridine cobalt complexes with anionic ligands (Inorg. Chem. 2010, 49, 6110 and JACS. 2010, 132, 1676.) However, the catalysts and catalyst systems disclosed in these references are described for use in the context of olefin hydrogenation, polymerizations and/or oligomerisations, not in the context of dehydrogenative silylation reactions. U.S. Patent No. 8,236,915 discloses hydrosilylation using Mn, Fe, Co, and Ni catalysts containing pyridinediimine ligands. However, these catalysts are sensitive to air and must be handled in a glove box.
[0007] There is a continuing need in the silylation industry for non-precious metal-based catalysts that are effective for efficiently and selectively catalyzing hydrosilylation and/or dehydrogenative silylations. There is also a need for metal-based catalysts that are air stable. Many metal-based catalysts, including those based on iron or cobalt, are not stable under atmospheric conditions. This makes such materials generally unsuitable for application on a production or industrial scale.
[0008] Further, many industrially important homogeneous metal catalysts suffer from the drawback that following consumption of the first charge of substrates, the catalytically active metal is lost to aggregation and agglomeration and its beneficial catalytic properties are substantially diminished via colloid formation or precipitation. This is a costly loss, especially for noble metals such as Pt. Heterogeneous catalysts are used to alleviate this problem but have limited use for polymers and also have lower activity than homogeneous counterparts. For example, the two primary homogeneous catalysts for hydrosilylation, Speier's and Karstedt's, often lose activity after catalyzing a charge of olefin and silyl- or siloxyhydride reaction. If a single charge of the homogeneous catalyst could be re -used for multiple charges of substrates, then catalyst and process cost advantages would be significant.

[0041] As used herein, the term "substituted aryl" refers to an aromatic group substituted as set forth in the above definition of "substituted alkyl." Similar to an aryl, a substituted aryl may have one or more aromatic rings, which may be fused, connected by single bonds or other groups; however, when the substituted aryl has a heteroaromatic ring, the attachment can be through a heteroatom (such as nitrogen) of the heteroaromatic ring instead of a carbon. In one embodiment, the substituted aryl groups herein contain 1 to about 30 carbon atoms.
[0042] As used herein, the term "alkenyl" refers to any straight, branched, or cyclic alkenyl group containing one or more carbon-carbon double bonds, where the point of substitution can be either a carbon-carbon double bond or elsewhere in the group.

Examples of inert substituents include, but are not limited to, halo (fluoro, chloro, bromo,
30 30
and iodo), and ether such as -OR wherein R is hydrocarbyl or substituted hydrocarbyl.
[0046] As used herein, the term "hetero atoms" refers to any of the Group 13-17 elements except carbon, and can include, for example, oxygen, nitrogen, silicon, sulfur, phosphorus, fluorine, chlorine, bromine, and iodine.
[0047] As used herein, the term "olefin" refers to any aliphatic or aromatic hydrocarbon also containing one or more aliphatic carbon-carbon unsaturations. Such olefins may be linear, branched, or cyclic and may be substituted with heteroatoms as described above, with the proviso that the substituents do not interfere substantially or deleteriously with the course of the desired reaction to produce the dehydrogenatively silylated or hydrosilylated product.
Cobalt Complexes
[0048] The present invention provides, in one aspect, a cobalt complex, which complex can be used as a catalyst in hydrosilylation or dehydrogenative silylation reactions. In one embodiment, the catalyst composition comprises a cobalt complex containing a terpyridine ligand and a chelating alkene-substituted silyl ligand coordinated to the cobalt, with the alkenyl substitution preferred at the beta-position relative to silicon. In one embodiment, the catalyst is a complex of the Formula (I) or an adduct thereof:
Figure imgf000010_0001
(I) wherein each occurrence of R - R is independently hydrogen, a CI -CI 8 alkyl, a CI -CI 8 substituted alkyl, a C6-C18 aryl, a substituted C6-C18 aryl, or an inert substituent; optionally any two of R!-Rn vicinal to one another, R4-R5, and/or R7-R8 taken together may form a ring being a
19 20 21 substituted or unsubstituted, saturated, or unsaturated cyclic structure; and Z is O, NR , or CR R , wherein R 19 , R 20 , and R 21 is independently hydrogen, a CI -CI 8 alkyl, CI -CI 8 substituted alkyl, a
19 20 21
C6-C18 aryl, a substituted C6-C18 aryl group, an alkaryl group, an aralkyl group, R , R , and R optionally contains at least one heteroatom. In the catalyst complex Co can be in any valence or oxidation state (e.g., +1, +2, or +3).
[0049] In one embodiment, R 12 and R 13 are independently chosen from a C1-C10 alkyl, or a C6-C18 aryl; Z is O; and R14-R18 are hydrogen. In one embodiment, R12 and R13 are each methyl.
In still another embodiment, R 12 and R 13 are each phenyl.
[0050] In one embodiment, the cobalt complex is a complex of the formula:
Figure imgf000011_0001
(II); or
Figure imgf000011_0002
[0051] In one embodiment, the catalyst is generated by reacting a catalyst precursor prepared according to published procedure with the desired alkenyl-modified silane containing a SiH group in a solvent. Catalysts can be prepared by any suitable method now known to a person skilled in the field or later discovered. For example, the catalysts can be prepared by reacting a terpyridine ligand with a metal complex such as Py2Co(CH2TMS)2 in a solvent (such as pentane) with stirring at room temperature. The resulting complex may be treated with an ether to yield a mono complex, which can then be treated with the desired alkenyl-modified silane in a solvent (e.g., toluene).
[0052] The cobalt catalysts with the terpyridine and alkene-mo dified silyl ligands exhibit good stability to air at atmospheric conditions. The present catalysts exhibit air stability that allows handling in the open atmosphere. Many iron or cobalt complexes known-previously to catalyze hydrosilylation or dehydrogenative silylation exhibit poor air stability rendering them impractical for industrial use. The present Terpy-Co complexes with the chelating alkene-mo dified silyl ligand, however, have been found to overcome this major drawback.
[0053] In another aspect, a terpyridine based cobalt complex with a single or mono ligand, L, coordinated to the cobalt is provided and which may also be used in a silylation process. The terpyridine cobalt mono-ligand complexes may have the empirical formula (Ci5RnN3)Co(L), where each occurrence of "R" and L is independently chosen from hydrogen, a CI -CI 8 alkyl, a CI -CI 8 substituted alkyl, a C6-C18 aryl, a substituted C6-C18 aryl, or an inert substituent, and "R," other than hydrogen, optionally contain at least one heteroatom.
[0054] In one embodiment, the mono-ligand complex is a compound of the formula:

(IV)
where R1- R11 are independently hydrogen, a C1-C18 alkyl, a C1-C18 substituted alkyl, a C5-C18 cycloalkyl, a C5-C18 substituted cycloalkyl, a C6-C18 aryl, a substituted C6-C18 aryl, or an inert substituent, R!-Rn optionally containing one or more heteroatoms; optionally any two of R!-Rn vicinal to one another, R4-R5, and/or R7-R8 taken together may form a ring being a substituted or unsubstituted, saturated, or unsaturated cyclic structure; and L is chosen from hydrogen, a CI -CI 8 alkyl, CI -CI 8 substituted alkyl, a C6-C18 aryl, a substituted C6-C18 aryl group, an alkaryl group, an aralkyl group, an alkyl trialkylsilyl, where L optionally contains at least one heteroatom. In one embodiment, one or more of R^-R11 may be a phenyl, alkyl substituted phenyl, hydroxyphenyl, anilines, naphthalene, etc. Non-limiting examples of a suitable substituted phenyl include phenyl groups comprising one or more CI -CIO alkyl substituents including, limited to, methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, butyl, etc. Examples of suitable alkyl phenyl groups include, but are not limited to tolyl, xylyl, naphthyl, etc. Still other examples of suitable substituted aryl groups include halo substituted aryl such as, for example, fluoro substituted aryl compounds. In another embodiment, may be chosen from a heterocyclic compound. Examples of suitable heterocyclic compounds include, but are not limited to, nitrogen-containing rings. A non-limiting example of suitable heterocyclic group is the pyrrolidino group.
[0055] In one embodiment, L is chosen from an alkyl trialkylsilyl group. In one
22 23
embodiment, the alkyl trialkylsilyl group has the formula -C(R )2-Si(R )3, and the complex is of the formula:
Figure imgf000013_0001
where each occurrence of R and R are independently hydrogen, a C 1 -C 18 alkyl, a C 1 -C 18
22 23 substituted alkyl, a C6-C18 aryl, a substituted C6-C18 aryl, or an inert substituent, and R and R optionally contain at least one heteroatom. Examples of suitable alkyl groups include, but are not limited to, methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, butyl, pentyl, etc. Examples of suitable aryl groups include, but are not limited to, phenyl, alkyl substituted phenyl, hydroxyphenyl, anilines, naphthalene, etc. In one embodiment, R!-Rn are each hydrogen. In one embodiment, at least one of comprises an aryl group. In one embodiment, at least one of R!-Rn comprises an aniline group. In one embodiment, R6 is advantageously fluorophenyl, dimethylaminophenyl, mesityl, or
22 23
the pyrrolidino group. The -C(R )2-Si(R )3 group may also be referred to as a neosilyl group and may be abbreviated "Ns". [0056] Non-limiting exam les of suitable compounds of Formula (IV) include:
Figure imgf000014_0001
[0057] Various methods can be used to prepare the catalyst utilized in the process of the present invention. The complexes of Formula (IV) may be made reacting a terpyridine ligand with a metal complex such as Py2Co(CH2TMS)2 in a solvent (such as pentane) with stirring at room temperature. Py is an abbreviation for pyridine and TMS refers to the trimethylsilyl group. The resulting complex may be treated with an ether to yield a mono complex. In one embodiment, complexes of Formula (IV) may be made by dissolving a terpyridine or terpyridine-based ligand in a solvent compatible with a (Py)2Co(CR'2SiR"3)2 solution, where R' and R" are independently hydrogen, a CI -CI 8 alkyl, a CI -CI 8 substituted alkyl, a C6-C18 aryl, a substituted C6-C18 aryl, or an inert substituent, and R 22 and R 23 optionally contain at least one heteroatom.; combining the terpyridine solution and a (Py)2Co(CR'2SiR"3)2 solution cooled to between approximately 0 °C and -100 °C and stirring and fully evacuating, dissolving the residual and filtering; combining the filtered product with a solvent and stirring; and recrystallizing from a water insoluble liquid or mixture, at temperatures between approximately 0 °C and -100 °C. In one embodiment, the catalyst is generated in-situ by contacting a catalyst precursor with an activator in the presence of a liquid medium containing at least one component selected from the group consisting of a solvent, the silyl hydride, the compound containing at least one unsaturated group, and combinations thereof. [0058] In the silylation reaction processes, the catalysts can be unsupported or immobilized on a support material, for example, carbon, silica, alumina, MgCl2 or zirconia, or on a polymer or prepolymer, for example polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene, poly(aminostyrene), or sulfonated polystyrene. The metal complexes can also be supported on dendrimers. In some embodiments, for the purposes of attaching the metal complexes of the invention to a support, it is desirable that at least one of R1 to R11 of the metal complexes, has a functional group that is effective to covalently bond to the support. Exemplary functional groups include but are not limited to vinyl, SH, COOH, NH2 or OH group.
Catalyzed Reactions
[0059] In accordance with the present invention, the cobalt catalysts of Formula (I) or Formula (IV) can be used as a catalyst for a hydrosilylation process or a dehydrogenative silylation process. Each process generally comprises reacting (a) a silyl hydride compound with (b) an unsaturated compound having at least one unsaturated functional group.
[0060] The silyl hydride employed in the reactions is not particularly limited. It can be, for example, any compound chosen from hydrosilanes or hydrosiloxanes including those compounds of the formulas R24 mSiHpX4_(m+p) or MaMH bDcDH dTeTH fQg, where each R24 is independently a substituted or unsubstituted aliphatic or aromatic hydrocarbyl group, X is alkoxy, acyloxy, or silazane, m is 0-3, p is 1-3, (with the proviso that silicon remains tetravalent), and M, D, T, and Q have their usual meaning in siloxane nomenclature. The subscripts a, b, c, d, e, f, and g are such that the molar mass of the siloxane-type reactant is between 100 and 100,000 Dalton. In one
embodiment, an "M" group represents a monofunctional group of formula R 253SiOi/2, a "D" group
25
represents a difunctional group of formula R 2Si02/2, a "T" group represents a trifunctional group of formula R25Si03/2, and a "Q" group represents a tetrafunctional group of formula Si04/2, an "MH" group represents HR25 2SiOi/2, a "TH" represents HSi03/2, and a "DH" group represents R25HSi02/2.
Each occurrence of R 25 is independently CI -CI 8 alkyl, CI -CI 8 substituted alkyl, C6-C14 aryl or substituted aryl, wherein R 25 optionally contains at least one heteroatom. In one embodiment, R 24 is chosen from a CI -CIO alkyl. In one embodiment, X is chosen from a CI -CIO alkoxy.
[0061] The instant invention also provides hydrosilylation with hydridosiloxanes comprising carbosiloxane linkages (for example, Si-CH2-Si-0-SiH, Si-CH2-CH2-Si-0-SiH or Si- arylene-Si-O-SiH). Carbosiloxanes contain both the -Si-(hydrocarbylene)-Si- and -Si-O-Si- functionalities, where hydrocarbyl ene represents a substituted or unsubstituted, divalent alkylene, cycloalkylene or arylene group. The synthesis of carbosiloxanes is disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 7,259,220; U.S. Patent No. 7,326,761 and U.S. Patent No. 7,507,775 all of which are incorporated herein in their entirety by reference. An exemplary formula for hydridosiloxanes with
30 30 30 30 30
carbosiloxane linkages is R 3Si(CHRJU)xSiOSi RJ 2(OSi RJ 2)yOSi R 2H, wherein each occurrence of R 30 is independently a monovalent alkyl, cycloalkyl or aryl group such as CI -CI 8 alkyl, CI -CI 8 substituted alkyl, C6-C14 aryl or substituted aryl. Non- limiting examples of suitable groups include, for example, methyl, ethyl, cyclohexyl or phenyl. Additionally, R 30 independently may also be H. The subscript x has a value of 1-8, y has a value from zero to 10 and is preferably zero to 4. A specific example of a hydridocarbosiloxane is (CH3)3SiCH2CH2Si(CH3)2OSi(CH3)2H.
[0062] Hydridocarbosilanes are another class useful for the hydrosilylation and
dehydrogenative silylation reactions of the instant invention. Hydridocarbosilanes have SiH bonds as well as linkages such as -Si-(CH2)X-Si- (wherein x is an integer greater than or equal to 1 , and is preferably 1 - 8) and other Si-hydrocarbylene groups in the molecular formula, but no siloxane linkages. As defined above, hydrocarbylene refers to a substituted or unsubstituted divalent alkylene, cycloalkylene or arylene group. They can be linear, cyclic or branched and contain more than one SiH bond per molecule. The SiH bonds can be terminal or distributed internally along the Si-hydrocarbylene chains in the molecule. An exemplary formula for hydridocarbosilanes is
30 30 30 30
R 3Si(CHR )xSi R 2H, R and x having the meanings defined above. Specific examples of hydridocarbosilanes are (CH3)3SiCH2CH2Si(CH3)2H, H(CH3)2SiCH2CH2Si(CH3)2H,
(CH3)3SiC6H4Si(CH3)2H, (CH3)3SiC6HioSi(CH3)2H, wherein -C6H4- is the phenylene linkage and - C6Hio- is the cyclohexylene linkage. Use of hydridocarbosilanes in hydrosilylation and
dehydrogenative silylation enables the synthesis of saturated and unsaturated silahydrocarbons as illustrated in Example 15.
[0063] The unsaturated compound containing an unsaturated functional group employed in the hydrosilylation reaction is generally not limited and can be chosen from an unsaturated compound as desired for a particular purpose or intended application. The unsaturated compound can be a mono-unsaturated compound or it can comprise two or more unsaturated functional groups. In one embodiment, the unsaturated group can comprise an aliphatically unsaturated functional group. The unsaturated compound can be a mono-unsaturated compound or it can comprise two or more unsaturated functional groups. In one embodiment, the unsaturated group can be an aliphatically unsaturated functional group. Examples of suitable compounds containing an unsaturated group include, but are not limited to, unsaturated polyethers such as alkyl-capped allyl polyethers, vinyl functionalized alkyl capped allyl or methylallyl polyethers; terminally unsaturated amines; alkynes; C2-C45 olefins, in one embodiment alpha olefins; unsaturated epoxides such as allyl glycidyl ether and vinyl cyclohexene-oxide; terminally unsaturated acrylates or methyl acrylates; unsaturated aryl ethers; unsaturated aromatic hydrocarbons; unsaturated cycloalkanes such as trivinyl cyclohexane; vinyl-functionalized polymer or oligomer; and vinyl- functionalized and/or terminally-unsaturated alkenyl-silanes and/or silicones; unsaturated fatty acids; unsaturated fatty esters; or combinations of two or more thereof.

R270(CHR28CH20)w(CH2CH20)z— CR292— C≡C— CR29 2(OCH2CH2)z(OCH2CHR28)wR27 wherein R26 denotes an unsaturated organic group containing from 2 to 10 carbon atoms such as allyl, methylallyl, propargyl or 3-pentynyl. When the unsaturation is olefmic, it is desirably terminal to facilitate smooth hydrosilylation. However, when the unsaturation is a triple bond, it may be internal. R 27 is independently hydrogen, vinyl, allyl, methallyl, or a polyether capping group of from 1 to 8 carbon atoms such as the alkyl groups: CH3, n-C4H , t-C4t¾ or i-CsHn, the acyl groups such as CH3COO, t-C4H COO, the beta-ketoester group such as CH3C(0)CH2C(0)0, or a

Preferred levels are from 0.005 to 1 mole percent. Reaction may be run at temperatures from about -10°C up to 300°C, depending on the thermal stability of the alkene, silyl hydride and the specific pyridine di-imine complex.
Temperatures in the range, 10 - 100°C, have been found to be effective for most reactions. Heating of reaction mixtures can be done using conventional methods as well as with microwave devices.
[0068] The catalyst composition can be provided for either the dehydrogenative silylation or hydrosilylation reactions in an amount sufficient to provide a desired metal concentration. In one embodiment, the concentration of the catalyst is about 5% (50000 ppm) or less based on the total weight of the reaction mixture; about 1% (10000 ppm) or less; 5000 ppm or less based on the total weight of the reaction mixture; about 1000 ppm or less; about 500 ppm or less based on the total weight of the reaction mixture; about 100 ppm or less; about 50 ppm or less based on the total weight of the reaction mixture; even about 10 ppm or less based on the total weight of the reaction mixture. In one embodiment, the concentration of the catalyst is from about 10 ppm to about 50000 ppm; about 100 ppm to about 10000 ppm; about 250 ppm to about 5000 ppm; even about 500 ppm to about 2500 ppm. In one embodiment, the concentration of the metal atom is from about 100 to about 1000 ppm based on the total weight of the reaction mixture. The concentration of the metal (e.g., cobalt) can be from about 1 ppm to about 5000 ppm; from about 5 ppm to about 2500 ppm; from about 10 ppm to about 1000 ppm, even from about 25 ppm to about 500 ppm. Here as elsewhere in the specification and claims, numerical values can be combined to form new and non- disclosed ranges.
[0069] The silylation reactions of this invention can be run at subatmospheric and supra- atmospheric pressures. Typically, pressures from about 1 atmosphere (0.1 MPa) to about 200 atmospheres (20 MPa), preferably to about 50 atmospheres (5.0 MPa), are suitable. Higher pressures are effective with volatile and/or less reactive alkenes which require confinement to enable high conversions.
[0070] In one embodiment, the catalysts are useful for dehydrogenative silylation of a composition containing a silyl hydride and a compound having at least one unsaturated group. The process includes contacting the composition with a suitable metal complex, either supported or unsupported, to cause the silyl hydride to react with the compound having at least one unsaturated group to produce a dehydrogenative silylation product, which may contain the metal complex catalyst. The dehydrogenative silylation reaction can be conducted optionally in the presence of a solvent. If desired, when the dehydrogenative silylation reaction is completed, the metal complex can be removed from the reaction product by magnetic separation and/or filtration. These reactions may be performed neat, or diluted in an appropriate solvent. Typical solvents include benzene, toluene, diethyl ether, etc. It is preferred that the reaction is performed under an inert atmosphere.
[0071] Because the double bond of an alkene is preserved during the dehydrogenative silylation reaction employing these cobalt catalysts, a singly-unsaturated olefin may be used to crosslink silyl-hydride containing polymers. For example, a silyl-hydride polysiloxane, such as Momentive SL6020 Dl (MDisDH 3oM), may be reacted with 1-octene in the presence of the cobalt catalysts of this invention to produce a crosslinked, elastomeric material. A variety of new materials can be produced by this method by varying the hydride polymer and length of the olefin used for the crosslinking. Accordingly, the catalysts used in the process of the invention have utility in the preparation of useful silicone products, including, but not limited to, coatings, for example release coatings, room temperature vulcanizates, sealants, adhesives, products for agricultural and personal care applications, and silicone surfactants for stabilizing polyurethane foams. [0072] The cobalt complexes disclosed herein can be used as a catalyst for various reactions including, for example, the hydrosilylation of a composition containing a silyl hydride and a compound having at least one aliphatically unsaturated group. The hydrosilylation process includes contacting the composition with a cobalt complex of the Formula (I), either supported or unsupported, to cause the silyl hydride to react with the compound having at least one aliphatically unsaturated group to produce a hydrosilylation product. The hydrosilylation product may contain the components from the catalyst composition. The hydrosilylation reaction can be conducted optionally in the presence of a solvent, at subatmospheric or supra-atmospheric pressures and in batch or continuous processes. The hydrosilylation reaction can be conducted at temperatures of from about -10 °C to about 200 °C. If desired, when the hydrosilylation reaction is completed, the catalyst composition can be removed from the reaction product by filtration.
[0073] It will be appreciated that the reaction of a silyl hydride with an unsaturated compound can provide a mixture of hydrosilylated and dehydrogenatively silylated products. In one embodiment, a majority of the products is the hydrosilylated product.
[0074] The cobalt complexes of the invention are, in embodiments, efficient and selective in catalyzing hydrosilylation reactions. For example, when the metal complexes of the invention are employed in the hydrosilylation of a silyl hydride and a compound containing an unsaturated group, the reaction products are essentially free of unreacted unsaturated compound and/or any
dehydrogenative silylated products. In one embodiment, the reaction products do not contain the unreacted and its isomerization products. As used herein, "essentially free" is meant no more than 10 wt. %, no more than 5 wt. %, no more than 3 wt. %; even no more than 1 wt. % based on the total weight of the hydrosilylation product. "Essentially free of internal addition products" is meant that silicon is added to the terminal carbon.
[0075] Hydrosilylation and dehydrogenative silylation reactions are conducted on large scales to produce various organic and inorganic materials, including additives to household items and release coatings. The disclosed approach can see immediate commercial application for these processes, which offers a cheaper yet competitive alternative to the current precious-metal-based practices. More importantly, the present reactions provide higher selectivity and fewer by-products for certain substrates compared to existing processes.
[0076] The following examples are intended to illustrate, but in no way limit the scope of the present invention. All parts and percentages are by weight and all temperatures are in degrees Celsius unless explicitly stated otherwise. All the publications and the U.S. patents referred to in the application are hereby incorporated by reference in their entireties. EXAMPLES
General considerations
[0077] All air- and moisture-sensitive manipulations were carried out using standard Schlenk techniques or in an MBraun inert atmosphere dry box containing an atmosphere of purified nitrogen. Solvents for air- and moisture-sensitive manipulations were dried and deoxygenated by passing through solvent system columns and stored with 4 A molecular sieves in the dry box.
Benzene -de was purchased from Cambridge Isotope Laboratories, dried over sodium and stored with 4 A molecular sieves in the dry box. The 2,2';6'2"-terpyridine (terpy) ligand was obtained from Strem, dried under high vacuum overnight and brought into the dry box. Liquid substrates were dried over LiAlH4 or CaH2 and degased under high vacuum before use.
[0078] NMR spectra were acquired on a Varian INOVA-500 or Bruker-500 MHz spectrometer. The chemical shifts (δ) of 1H NMR spectra are given in parts per million and referenced to the solvent residual of benzene -de (7.16 ppm).
[0079] In the equations depicting the hydrosilylation and dehydrogenative silylation reactions in Examples 13 - 16, the abbreviation "[Si]" is used in the formulae of the products to show the attachment of the reactive silicon atom to the unsaturated substrate. The remaining groups on the silicon atom are omitted for clarity. However, the specific reaction products formed are identified in the examples.

General Procedure for Catalyst screening of the silylation of 1-octene with triethoxysilane
[0085] In a glove box, 1-octene (112 mg, 1 mmol) and triethoxysilane (164 mg, 1 mmol) were charged into a vial equipped with a stir bar. The solid cobalt precursor (2-3 mg, 0.5 mol%) was charged into a separate vial and then added to the vial containing substrates. The vial was sealed with a cap and stirred. After 1 hour, the reaction was quenched by exposure to air. The product mixture was analyzed by GC prior to filtration. Subsequently, it was filtered through a plug of silica gel (Fluka®, high-purity grade, pore size 60 A, 40-63 um particle size) typically used for flash chromatography. The resulting eluate was stripped under vacuum and analyzed by 1 H and 13 C NMR spectroscopy. The yields are based on conversion of 1-octene.

Examples 16 - 20: Silylation of Vinylcyclohexene oxide (3-vinyl-7-oxabicvclor4.1.01heptane) with MDHM with various TerpyCoNs Catalysts
[0099] These examples illustrate the use of various TerpyCoNs catalysts for the
simultaneous hydrosilylation and dehydrogenative silylation of vinylcyclohexene oxide (VCHO). The catalysts differ in the substitution at the 4-position of the terpyridine ligand. Thus, in Example 16, the unsubstituted ligand was used, in Example 17, the 4-fluorophenyl, in Example 18, the 4- dimethylaminophenyl, in Example 19, the 4-mesityl and in Example 20, the 4-(pyrrolidin-l-yl).
[00100] All reactions were conducted in a nitrogen-filled drybox.
