Abstract
We present the first example of Au-catalyzed reduction of nitriles into primary amines. In contrast to monohydrosilanes which are completely unreactive, diethylsilane (a dihydrosilane) is capable of reducing aryl or alkyl nitriles into primary amines under catalysis by Au nanoparticles supported on TiO2, via a smooth double hydrosilylation pathway. The produced labile N-disilylamines are readily deprotected by HCl in Et2O to form the hydrochloric salts of the corresponding amines in very good to excellent yields. The catalyst is recyclable and reusable at least in 5 consecutive runs.

Abstract
Recent advances in single-atom insertion reactions have opened up new synthetic approaches for molecular diversification. Developing innovative strategies to directly transform biologically relevant molecules, without any prefunctionalization, is key to further expanding the scope and utility of such transformations. Herein, the direct access to quinazolines and pyrimidines from the corresponding unprotected 1H-indoles and 1H-pyrroles is reported, relying on the implementation of lithium bis(trimethylsilyl)amide (LiHMDS) as a novel nitrogen atom source in combination with commercially available hypervalent iodine reagents. Further application of this strategy in late-stage settings demonstrates its potential in lead structure diversification campaigns.

Abstract
Group I alkoxides are highly active precatalysts in the heterodehydrocoupling of silanes and amines to afford aminosilane products. The broadly soluble and commercially available KOt Amyl was utilized as the benchmark precatalyst for this transformation. Challenging substrates such as anilines were found to readily couple primary, secondary, and tertiary silanes in high conversions (>90 %) after only 2 h at 40 °C. Traditionally challenging silanes such as Ph3 SiH were also easily coupled to simple primary and secondary amines under mild conditions, with reactivity that rivals many rare earth and transition-metal catalysts for this transformation. Preliminary evidence suggests the formation of hypercoordinated intermediates, but radicals were detected under catalytic conditions, indicating a mechanism that is rare for Si-N bond formation.

Abstract
A family of commercially available organolithium compounds were found to effectively catalyze the heterodehydrocoupling of silanes and amines under ambient conditions. Ubiquitous nBuLi (1) was utilized as the benchmark catalyst, where an array of primary, secondary, and tertiary arylsilanes were coupled to electron-donating amines, affording aminosilanes in high conversions with short reaction times. Preliminary mechanistic analysis is consistent with a nucleophilic-type system that involves the formation of a hypervalent silicon intermediate. This work underscores the accessibility of Si-N heterodehydrocoupling, with organolithium reagents emerging as some of the most straightforward and cost-effective precatalysts for this transformation.

Abstract
The N,N'-chelated conjugated bis-guanidinate (CBG) supported zinc hydride (Zn-1) pre-catalyzed highly challenging chemoselective mono-hydrosilylation of a wide range of nitriles to exclusive N-silylimines and/or N,N'-silyldiimines is reported. Furthermore, the effectiveness of pre-catalyst Zn-1 is compared with another pre-catalyst analogue, i.e., DiethylNacNac zinc hydride (Zn-2), to know the ligand effect. We observed that pre-catalyst Zn-1 shows high efficiency and better selectivity than pre-catalyst Zn-2 for reducing nitriles to N-silylimines. Mechanistic studies indicate the insertion of the C≡N bond of nitrile into Zn-H to form the zinc vinylidenamido complexes (Zn-1' and Zn-2'). The active catalysts Zn-1' and Zn-2' are confirmed by NMR, mass spectrometry, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses. A most plausible catalytic cycle has been explored depending on stoichiometric experiments, active catalysts isolation, and in situ studies. Moreover, the synthetic utility of this protocol was demonstrated.

Abstract
A nickel-catalyzed N-N cross-coupling for the synthesis of hydrazides is reported. O-Benzoylated hydroxamates were efficiently coupled with a broad range of aryl and aliphatic amines via nickel catalysis to form hydrazides in an up to 81% yield. Experimental evidence implicates the intermediacy of electrophilic Ni-stabilized acyl nitrenoids and the formation of a Ni(I) catalyst via silane-mediated reduction. This report constitutes the first example of an intermolecular N-N coupling compatible with secondary aliphatic amines.

Abstract
An N-heterocyclic carbene-zinc alkyl complex [ImDippZn(CH2CH3)2] (Im = imidazol-2-ylidene and Dipp = 2,6-diisopropylphenyl) acts as a catalyst in the cross-dehydrogenative coupling (CDC) of a wide range of primary and secondary amines and hydrosilanes to yield a substantial quantity of the corresponding aminosilanes with good chemoselectivity at room temperature. A broad substrate scope was observed during the zinc-catalyzed CDC reaction. Two zinc complexes, [{ImMesZn(μ-NHPh)(NHPh)}2] (Mes = mesityl) (3) and [{ImDippZn(CH2CH3)(μ-H)}2] (4), were isolated and structurally characterized as intermediates through controlled reactions to ascertain the CDC mechanism.

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
Tri-substituted pyridines are important scaffolds that can be found in a plethora of commercially available drugs. A one-pot general method for the selective synthesis of less explored/challenging patterns of tri-substituted pyridines is described. Hydroamination of alkynes with commercially available N-triphenylsilylamine generates N-silylenamines. These in situ generated N-silylenamines, upon reaction with α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds and subsequent oxidation, furnish 25 examples of selectively substituted 2,4,5-, 2,3,4-, 3,4,5-, 2,3,5-, and 2,3,6-trisubstituted pyridines in up to 78% yield. The reaction features high functional group compatibility providing an expeditious and general approach for the assembly of selectively substituted tri-substituted pyridine derivatives. The robustness and practicality of the reaction have been demonstrated in a gram-scale reaction.

Abstract
An examination of several catalytic reactions among the group 15 elements is presented. The connections between the chemistry of the pnictogens can sometimes be challenging, but aspects of metal-pnictogen reactivity are the key. The connecting reactivity comes from metal-catalyzed transformations such as dehydrocoupling and hydrofunctionalization. Pivotal mechanistic insights from E-N heterodehydrocoupling have informed the development of highly active catalysts for these reactions. Metal-amido nucleophilicity is often at the core of this reactivity, which diverges from phosphine and arsine dehydrocoupling. Nucleophilicity connects to the earliest understanding of hydrophosphination catalysis, but more recent catalysts are leveraging enhanced insertion activity through photolysis. This photocatalysis extends to hydroarsination, which may also have more metal-arsenido nucleophilicity than anticipated. However, metal-catalyzed arsinidene chemistry foreshadowed related phosphinidene chemistry by years. This examination shows the potential for greater influence of individual discoveries and understanding to leverage new advances between these elements, and it also suggests that the chemistry of heavier elements may have more influence on what is possible with lighter elements.
