The formation and high reactivity of transition-metal-element multiple bonds plays an important role in transitionmetal-catalyzed reactions, in particular, by facilitating the cleavage and formation of usually robust bonds. Olefin metathesis is a typical and very useful example of this type of reaction, in which carbene complexes, which have a metalcarbon double bond, are not only key intermediates but may also act as high-performance catalysts.[1] In contrast to metal-carbon multiple bonds, metal-element multiple bonds, where the element is from the third or subsequent row of the periodic table, have been much less widely investigated. Among them, silylene complexes, which possess a metal-silicon double bond, have been the most extensively studied, [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9] but the mechanisms of their reactions remain rather unclear.Both ourselves and Pannell's group have insisted, through the generation of silyl(silylene) complexes with transition metals from groups 6 to 9 and the preparation of their donorstabilized forms, that 1,2-and 1,3-group migrations of these systems (Scheme 1) occur very easily under mild conditions, and cause the metal-catalyzed oligomerization/deoligomerization, isomerization, and redistribution of organosilicon Scheme 1. Illustrating the 1,2-and 1,3-group migrations in silyl(silylene) complexes with metals of groups 6 to 9.
