Abstract

A selective iridium catalyzed hydrosilylation of alkenes in the presence of more reactive alkynes is described. By utilizing [IrCl(COD)]2 in the presence of excess COD, hydrosilylation of alkenes and alkynes with ethynylsilanes is achieved with good chemo- and regioselectivity. This approach goes against the traditional reactivity trends of platinum and rhodium catalysts and allows access to highly substituted silicon alkyne tethers.
