The chain–walking of terminal alkenes (also called migration or isomerization reaction) is
currently carried out in industry with unselective and relatively costly processes, to give …

Silicon and its related organosilicon chemistry has become a mainstay in synthetic chemistry
as they can participate in numerous organic transformations. Due to space limitations, this …

As one of the most influential scientists in the field of heterogeneous catalysis and materials
science, Prof. Avelino Corma has made significant contributions in many diverse fields …

Evidence of the involvement of a “cocktail”-type catalytic system in the alkyne and alkene
hydrosilylation reaction in the presence of platinum on a carbon support is reported. The …

We describe the synthesis, characterization, and catalytic hydrosilylation activity of platinum
(II) di-ω-alkenyl compounds of stoichiometry PtR2, where R= CH2SiMe2 (vinyl)(1) or …

Recent developments have underpinned that the creation of a potent catalytic system does
not always necessitate the assembly of complex and costly organic ligands with transition …

In this manuscript we assess the catalytic properties of pincer platinum complexes in alkyne
hydrosilylation either under photo or thermal conditions. The visible light-induced …

Ultrasmall silver clusters in reduced state are difficult to synthesize since silver atoms tend to
rapidly aggregate into bigger entities. Here, we show that dimers of reduced silver (Ag2) are …

The supporting of pre‐formed soluble metal catalysts on solids is a typical methodology to
transform soluble but unrecoverable metal complexes into recoverable and reusable solid …

The hydrosilylation of alkynes is a powerful process for producing vinylsilane compounds,
which are synthetically versatile organosilicon reagents in organic chemistry. Herein …
