A combined experimental and computational approach has been utilized to elucidate the mechanism of alkene hydrogenation by pincer-type [P2Si]Rh catalysts. Although [P2Si]Rh interacts with H2to afford a dihydrogen σ-complex rather than a dihydride (seemingly an indication of facile reductive elimination from Rh(III)), alkane release occurs by competitive σ-bond metathesis (bimolecular) and reductive elimination (unimolecular) pathways. This unusual behavior is attributed to the strongtransinfluence of the silyl donor.
