A new alternative to Stryker's reagent in hydrosilylation: synthesis, structure, and reactivity of a well-defined carbene-copper(II) acetate complex.
A new, air stable and well-defined carbene-copper(II) complex has been prepared, which is an efficient precatalyst for the 1,2- and 1,4-reduction of carbonyl compounds under hydrosilylation conditions.
