Abstract

Palladium-phosphinous acids catalyze the microwave-assisted conjugate addition of arylsiloxanes to a wide range of α,β-unsaturated substrates in water. The described procedure eliminates the need for stoichiometric additives and an excess of arylsiloxane, and does not require an inert atmosphere.
