The structures of two [Fe(η4-C7H8)(CO)2(L)] complexes (C7H8 = norbornadiene; L = CNMe or PPh3)

COT) 2 Fe and the open ferrocenes (MPDE) 2 Fe (MPDE = η 5 -3-methylpentadienyl) and (DMPDE) 2 Fe (DMPDE = η 5 -2,4-dimethylpentadienyl) were found to function as catalyst precursors for the hydrosilylation of alkenes in the presence of auxiliary ligands. Screening trials determined that the optimal catalyst system was composed of (COT) 2 Fe and adamantyl isocyanide, allowing the selective hydrosilylation of styrene derivatives with trisubstituted hydrosiloxanes and a polydimethylsiloxane bearing Me 2 SiH moieties as the end groups. Under the appropriate conditions, the dehydrogenative silylation side reaction was completely suppressed, and the reaction TON exceeded 5000.
