This method demonstrates olefin-dependent regioselectivity for hydrosilanes and alkoxysilanes, suggesting a greener approach in synthesis.
A simple, bench-stable cobalt complex catalyses alkene hydrosilylation, offering a green alternative to precious metals. The activator-free system shows olefin-dependent regioselectivity, yielding α-adducts from vinylarenes (in a solvent-free protocol) or β-adducts from aliphatic olefins. It also enables a practical one-pot synthesis of valuable alkoxysilanes.
