Ruthenium-catalysed double trans-hydrosilylation of 1,4-diarylbuta-1,3-diynes leading to 2,5-diarylsiloles

Abstract

Dihydrosilanes undergo double trans-hydrosilylation with 1,4-diarylbuta-1,3-diynes in the presence of a cationic ruthenium catalyst to afford 2,5-diarylsiloles: in particular, 9-silafluorene is a good hydrosilylating agent to produce spiro-type siloles in good yield.
