Abstract

Abstract The hydrosilylation of various carbonyl compounds such as simple aldehydes, simple ketones, α, β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds, α-diketones, acyl cyanides and ketones having an electron-withdrawing group on the α-carbon using tris (triphenylphosphine) chlororhodium as a catalyst is described. Solvolysis of these silyl ethers and silyl enol ethers afforded the corresponding reduced products. The ...
