title: Regio- and stereoselective hydrosilylation of 1,3-enynes catalyzed by palladium.
abstract: In the presence of Pd(0) and a phosphine, hydrosilylation of 1,3-enynes with Me2SiHCl proceeds to yield dienylsilanes with the silicon function added to the internal alkyne carbon atom and with (E)-configuration of newly formed olefinic bond. The silanols isolated after hydrolysis of the primarily obtained products serve as precursors to conjugated dienes with different substitution patterns.
