The utility of commercially available Ni(II) salts, Ni(acac)2 (acac = acetylacetonato) (1a) and its derivatives bis(hexafluoroacetylacetonato)nickel(II) (1b) and bis(2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-3,5-heptanedionato)nickel(II) (1c) as versatile hydrosilylation catalyst precursors is described. Complexes 1a-c catalyze 1,4-selective hydrosilylation of 1,3-dienes in the presence of NaBHEt3 at ambient temperature. The reactions exhibit good regioselectivity to give the branched isomers as major products. The catalytic system also catalyzes hydrosilylation of alkenes including industriary important siloxy-, amino-, and epoxy-substituted ones as well as both terminal and internal alkynes.
