Abstract
This perspective summarizes our group's extensive research in the realm of organometallic lanthanide complexes, while also placing the catalytic reactions supported by these species within the context of known lanthanide catalysis worldwide, with a specific focus on phosphorus-based catalytic reactions such as intermolecular hydrophosphination and hydrophosphinylation. α-Metalated N,N-dimethylbenzylamine ligands have been utilized to generate homoleptic lanthanide complexes, which have subsequently proven to be highly active lanthanum-based catalysts. The main goal of our research program has been to enhance the catalytic efficiency of lanthanum-based complexes, which began with initial successes in the stoichiometric synthesis of organometallic lanthanide complexes and utilization of these species in catalytic hydrophosphination reactions. Not only have these species supported traditional lanthanide catalysis, such as the hydrophosphination of heterocumulenes like carbodiimides, isocyanates, and isothiocyanates, but they have also been effective for a plethora of catalytic reactions tested thus far, including the hydrophosphinylation and hydrophosphorylation of nitriles, hydrophosphination and hydrophosphinylation of alkynes and alkenes, and the heterodehydrocoupling of silanes and amines. Each of these catalytic transformations is meritorious in its own right, offering new synthetic routes to generate organic scaffolds with enhanced functionality while concurrently minimizing both waste generation and energy consumption. Objectives: We aim for the research summary presented herein to inspire and encourage other researchers to investigate f-element based stoichiometric and catalytic reactions. Our efforts in this field began with the recognition that potassium salts of benzyldimethylamine preferred deprotonation at the α-position, rather than the ortho-position, and we wondered if this regiochemistry would be retained in the formation of lanthanide complexes. The pursuit of this simple idea led first to a series of structurally fascinating homoleptic organometallic lanthanide complexes with surprisingly good stability. Fundamental studies of the protonolysis chemistry of these complexes ultimately revealed highly versatile lanthanide-based precatalysts that have propelled a catalytic investigation spanning more than a decade. We anticipate that this summative perspective will animate the synthetic as well as biological communities to consider La(DMBA)3-based catalytic methods in the synthesis of functionalized organic scaffolds as an atom-economic, convenient, and efficient methodology. Ultimately, we envision our work making a positive impact on the advancement of novel chemical transformations and contributing to progress in various fields of science and technology.

Abstract
[(Bn2Cyclam)Y(N(SiMe3)2)] was prepared by reaction of H2Bn2Cyclam with Y[N(SiMe3)2]3. The protonation of the macrocycle ligand in [(Bn2Cyclam)Y(N(SiMe3)2)] is observed upon reaction with [HNMe3][BPh4] leading to the formation of [(HBn2Cyclam)Y(N(SiMe3)2)][BPh4]. DFT analysis of [(Bn2Cyclam)Y(N(SiMe3)2)] showed that the HOMO is located on the anionic nitrogen atoms of the cyclam ring indicating that protonation follows orbital control. Addition of H2Bn2Cyclam and H2(3,5-tBu2Bn)2Cyclam to a 1:3 mixture of YCl3 and LiCH2SiMe3 in THF resulted in the formation of [((C6H4CH2)BnCyclam)Y(THF)(µ-Cl)Li(THF)2] and [Y{(η3-3,5-tBu2Bn)2Cyclam}Li(THF)], respectively. The reaction of H23,5-tBu2Bn2Cyclam with Y(CH2SiMe3)3(THF)2 was studied and monitored by a temperature variation NMR experiment revealing the formation of [(3,5-tBu2Bn2Cyclam)Y(CH2SiMe3)]. Preliminary catalytic assays have shown that [Y{(η3-3,5-tBu2Bn)2Cyclam}Li(THF)] is a very efficient catalyst for the intramolecular hydroamination of 2,2-diphenyl-pent-4-enylamine.

Abstract
This article covers historical and recent efforts to catalyse the dehydrocoupling of amines and silanes, a direct method for Si-N bond formation that offers hydrogen as a byproduct. In some applications, this transformation can be used as a sustainable replacement for traditional aminosilane synthesis, which demands corrosive chlorosilanes while generating one equivalent of ammonium salt waste for each Si-N bond that is formed. These advantages have driven the development of Si-N dehydrocoupling catalysts that span the periodic table, affording mechanistic insight that has led to advances in efficiency and selectivity. Given the divergence in precursors being used, characterization methods being relied on, and applications being targeted, this article highlights the formation of monomeric aminosilanes separately from oligomeric and polymeric aminosilanes. A recent study that allowed for the manganese catalysed synthesis of perhydropolysilazane and commercial chemical vapor deposition precursors is featured, and key opportunities for advancing the field of Si-N dehydrocoupling catalysis are discussed.

Abstract
A summary of the catalytic synthesis and reactivity of N-silylated amines is presented. Dehydrocoupling of amines with silanes, hydrosilylation of imines and dealkenylative coupling of amines with vinylsilanes are three ways to achieve their catalytic syntheses. The resultant N-silylamines serve as substrates in a variety of reactions, including C-N and C-C bond forming reactions, and are preferred in transformations because of the facile Si-N hydrolytic cleavage to reveal free amine products upon reaction completion. This review highlights the distinct electronic properties of N-silyl amines, N-silyl imines and N-silyl enamines that result in complementary reactivity to that of parent non-silyl variants.
