A palladium-catalyzed allylic silylation using allylic alcohols and disilanes as precursors proceeds smoothly under mild and neutral conditions and is suitable for synthesis of regio- and stereodefined allylsilanes. The presented silylation reaction can be easily extended to include synthesis of allylboronates by change of the dimetallic reagent.

An open-bent titanocene complex [Me2C(C5H4)2TiMe2] proved to be efficient for the hydrosilylation of a variety of substrates such as disubstituted dienes, activated alkenes, and even an alkyne.

A new method for the synthesis of substituted 2-acylallylmetal reagents in a highly regio- and stereoselective fashion involving a three-component assembly of allenes, acyl chlorides, and bimetallic reagents (B-B, Si-Si, and Sn-Sn) catalyzed by phosphine-free palladium complexes is described.

An enantioselective silaboration of allenes was achieved using an achiral silylborane in the presence of a palladium catalyst bearing a chiral monodentate phosphine ligand. The enantioselectivity depended on the bulkiness of substituents of allenes.
