Advances in Base-Metal-Catalyzed Alkene Hydrosilylation
Chinese Academy of Sciences · Shanghai Institute of Organic Chemistry
Abstract
This review covers the advance in the development of Fe, Co, and Ni catalysts for the alkene hydrosilylation reaction, as well as the related dehydrogenative silylation reaction. The hydrosilylation of alkene is an important reaction for the synthesis of alkylsilanes that has widespread applications in numerous silicon-based materials, and for decades, this transformation has been relying on the use of Pt catalysts. Recently, the high abundance and low cost, coupled with the environmentally benign nature of the base metals have stimulated enormous research on the development of first-row transition-metal catalysts as replacements for the precious Pt catalysts. Several base-metal catalysts which have emerged…
