Abstract
A series of platinum–acetylide–phosphine complexes were synthesized and their anti‐sulfur‐poisoning characteristics investigated. In comparison with Speier's and Karstedt's catalysts, the platinum–acetylide–phosphine complexes exhibited both higher catalytic activity and selectivity for the β‐adduct for the hydrosilylation reactions under the same conditions. Furthermore, the complexes also exhibited a strong ability to resist to sulfur‐poisoning. This indicated that the alkyne ligands containing the silyl group had a strong impact on the hydrosilylation reaction. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
