Abstract

Isoprene was hydrosilylated in the absence of transition metals by using specific organic solvents as both reaction media and organocatalysts. A highly selective reaction with successful catalyst recycling could be performed by using propylene carbonate as the reaction medium.

Key words

hydrosilylations - homogeneous catalysis - solvent effects - dienes - silanes
