Abstract
The platinum-catalyzed hydrosilylation of unsymmetrical substituted arylalkynes with various hydrosilanes was investigated and the reaction selectivity of various para -substituted substrates was compared with that of their corresponding ortho -substituted derivatives. We showed that heterogeneous platinum oxide is a very efficient catalyst for such hydrosilylations and that H-Si bond addition proceeds in a stereoselective cis -fashion. The regioselectivity was found to be under the control of the ortho -substituent rather than due to the nature of the platinum catalyst. Arylalkynes with an ortho -substituent provided predominantly to exclusively α-selectivity, regardless of the electronic nature of the substituent. The precise contributions of steric, electronic, and coordinative factors controlling the regioselectivity of the H-Si bond addition are discussed.
Key words

12 Treatment of 2b with Et3 SiH (1.5 equiv) in the presence of H2 PtCl6 or Pt/C (5 mol%) at 60 °C for a prolonged time (3 h) did not promote any protodesilylation of 2b , indicating that the reduced side product was formed from starting material 1b .
13 Performing the hydrosilylation of 10a at 60 °C led to a mixture of α- (10%) and β-isomers (23%) together with the protodesilylated product (67%).
