Synthesis of α-tertiary allylsilanes by palladium-catalyzed hydrosilylation of 1,1-disubstituted allenes

We herein report an effective hydrosilylation of 1,1-disubstituted allenes with a palladium catalyst modified by a monophosphorus ligand,leading to a series ofα-tertiary allylsilanes in high yields and exceptional regiose-lectivities.The employment of BI-DIME is essential for the high reactivities and selectivities.A chiralα-tertiary allylsilane is formed in excellent ee for the first time by employing a chiral monophosphorus ligand.
