Abstract

In regioselective methods for allene hydrosilylation, alkenylsilanes are produced via nickel catalysis with larger N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands, whereas allylsilanes are produced via palladium catalysis with smaller NHC ligands. These complementary methods allow either regioisomeric product to be obtained with exceptional regiocontrol.
