Abstrakt: A series of air-stable cobalt(III)salen complexes Co-1 to Co-4 have been synthesized and employed in the hydrosilylation of ketones. Notably, the most intricately tailored Co-3 pre-catalyst exhibited exceptional catalytic activity under mild reaction conditions. The developed catalytic hydrosilylation protocol proceeded with an unusual ppm level (5 ppm) catalyst loading of Co-3 and achieved a maximum turnover number (TON) of 200,000. A wide variety of aromatic, aliphatic, and heterocyclic ketones encompassing both electron-donating and electron-withdrawing substituents were successfully transformed into the desired silyl ethers or secondary alcohols in moderate to excellent yields.
