J. Guliliski et al., COMPETITIVE-CONSECUTIVE REACTION OF VINYLTRIMETHYLSILANE WITH TRIETHYLSILANE CATALYZED BY RUTHENIUM COMPLEXES, Bulletin de la Societe chimique de France, 132(5-6), 1995, pp. 609-614
A complex reaction of vinyltrimethylsilane with triethylsilane catalyz
ed by ruthenium carbonyl and ruthenium phosphine complexes and perform
ed at 80-130 degrees C in air or oxygen-free conditions was followed b
y GC-MS. Catalytic examinations and identification of the products (I-
X) allowed us to propose a general scheme for the competitive-consecut
ive reaction in which the complexes containing Ru-H and Ru-Si bonds pl
ay the role of key intermediates.
