Abstract

A highly efficient and regio-/stereoselective method of hydrosilylating terminal alkynes was developed using Pt (DVDS)-tri (t-butyl) phosphine catalyst system at room temperature. Trans-products or alpha-products were obtained almost exclusively depending on the alkynes and silanes employed.
