ALCETYLENE HYDROSILATION USING CYCLOALKADIENE-PLATINUM COMPLEX AS CATALYST

摘要

A process is described for hydrosilating alkynes with hydridosilane using a cycloalkadiene-platinum complex as catalyst. The use of the cycloalkadiene-platinum complex as catalyst in our process surprisingly reduces the formation of the bis-silated adduct of the alkynes, when compared to the use of standard platinum-based hydrosilation catalysts.
