The manganese p-toluoyl complex Mn(CO)[sub 5]C(O)-p-CH[sub 3]C[sub 6]H[sub 4] catalyzes SiH/SiD exchange between DSiMe[sub 2]Ph and HSiMe[sub 2]Et at room temperature in C[sub 6]D[sub 6]. The preequilibrium kinetics are consistent with a second-order isotope exchange reaction; plots of initial velocities [nu] against [HSiMe[sub 2]Et] further established saturation kinetics. Lineweaver-Burk plots are in accord with a ping-pong bi-bi mechanism that operates under rapid equilibrium conditions and involves coordinatively unsaturated manganese silyls, (CO)[sub 4]MnSiMe[sub 2/R], as active catalysts. 29 refs., 2 figs.
