Ni(ii) and Co(ii) bis(acetylacetonato) complexes for alkene/vinylsilane silylation and silicone crosslinking

Abstract

Commercially available Ni(II) and Co(II) complexes - M(acac)2 (acac=acetylacetonate) and M(tmhd)2 (tmhd = 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-3,5-heptanedionato) - exhibit catalytic activity for alkene/vinylsilane dehydrogenative silylation (DS) and hydrosilylation (HS) with tertiary silanes without...
