Abstract

The Coz (CO) 8-catalyzed reaction of acrylic acid esters (methyl acrylate, ethyl acrylate, and butyl acrylate) with HSiEkMe gave the corresponding (E)-3-silylacrylate in high yields, along with only a small amount of@-adducts, when the esters were used in excess. Thus, the (E)-3- silylacrylates were obtained from HSiMe,, HSiEtzMe, HSiMe, Ph, and HSi (OEt),. The ratio of (E)-3-silylacrylate to@-adduct decreased with an increase in the molar ratio of hydrosilane ...
