Abstract

The combination of platinum-catalyzed hydrosilylation followed by palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling enables a formal hydrocarbation of terminal alkynes. The use of the t-Bu₃P-Pt(DVDS) catalyst in combination with tetramethyldisiloxane achieved excellent regio- and stereoselectivity. The cross-coupling proceeded in high yield and stereospecificity for a variety of aryl halides.
