Abstract
A general and highly chemoselective hydrosilylation of aldehydes using iron catalysts is reported. Fe (OAc) 2 in the presence of tricyclohexylphosphine as ligand and polymethylhydrosiloxane (PMHS) as an economical hydride source forms an efficient catalyst system for the hydrosilylation of a variety of aldehydes. Aryl, heteroaryl, alkyl and α, β-unsaturated aldehydes are successfully reduced to the corresponding primary alcohols. ...
