Aluminum(I) and magnesium(I) compounds are reported for the C–C s-bond activation of strained alkylidene cyclopropanes. These reactions result in the formal addition of the C–C s-bond to main group center either at a single site (Al) or across a metal–metal bond (Mg–Mg). Mechanistic studies suggest that rather than occurring by a concerted oxidative addition, these reactions involve stepwise processes in which substrate binding to the main group metal acts as a precursor to a- or b-alkyl migration steps that break the C–C s-bond. This mechanistic understanding is used to develop the magnesium-catalyzed hydrosilylation of the C–C s-bonds of alkylidene cyclopropanes.

Abstract In heterogeneous catalysis, olefin oligomerization is typically performed on immobilized transition metal ions, such as Ni2+ and Cr3+. Here we report that silica-supported, single site catalysts containing immobilized, main group Zn2+ and Ga3+ ions catalyze ethylene and propylene oligomerization to an equilibrium distribution of linear olefins with rates similar to that of Ni2+. The molecular weight distribution of products formed on Zn2+ is similar to Ni2+; while Ga3+ forms higher molecular weight olefins. In situ spectroscopic and computational studies suggest that oligomerization unexpectedly occurs by the Cossee-Arlman mechanism via metal hydride and metal alkyl intermediates formed during olefin insertion and β-hydride elimination elementary steps. Initiation of the catalytic cycle is proposed to occur by heterolytic C-H dissociation of ethylene, which occurs at about 250°C where oligomerization is catalytically relevant. This work reports new chemistry for main group metal catalysts with potential for development of new olefin processes.
