Mechanism of Hydrosilylation Catalyzed by Surface versus Soluble Rhodium Siloxide Complexes

Mechanism of Hydrosilylation Catalyzed by Surface versus Soluble Rhodium Siloxide Complexes 

Characterization of 6 by solid-state NMR spectroscopy as well as elemental analysis (only 28% decrease of rhodium content in samples after 20 cycles in the hydrosilylation) are convincing evidence of the high efficiency of surface rhodium siloxide complexes in the hydrosilylation of carbon-carbon multiple bonds as well as, presumably, in other reactions catalyzed by late transition metal siloxides syn-
