A highly chemo-, regio-, and stereo-selective cobalt-catalyzed dehydrogenative silylation of vinylarenes was described. The imidazoline iminopyridine cobalt complex could promote this reaction effectively and improve the chemoselectivity dramatically. This protocol used earth-abundant transition metal, readily available alkenes and hydrosilanes to construct valuable vinylsilanes. The reaction could be carried out in gramscale and the proposed mechanism was also described.
- cobalt-catalyzed,
