M. Riveraclaudio et al., HYDROSILYLATION OF ACETYLENES USING A H2PTCL6 CO CATALYTIC-SYSTEM SIGNIFICANTLY ENHANCED YIELDS OF ALPHA-PRODUCTS/, Journal of organometallic chemistry, 521(1-2), 1996, pp. 267-270
The chloroplatinic acid-catalysed hydrosilylations of phenylacetylene,
1-heptyne, and 1-octyne by (eta(5)-C5H5)Fe(CO)(2)SiPh(2)H (I), Ph(2)M
eSiH and PhMe(2)SiH have been studied in the presence of CO. The resul
ts indicate that the normally high levels of trans-beta-addition produ
cts formed in the absence of CO are dramatically reduced in favour of
the alpha-addition products.
