Solvent-free hydrosilylation of alkenes and alkynes using recyclable platinum on carbon nanotubes
Résumé
Platinum nanoparticles were stabilized at the surface of carbon nanotubes and the nanohybrid was valorized as a catalyst for the hydrosilylation of alkenes and alkynes. The heterogeneous catalyst operated under sustainable conditions (room temperature, no solvent, low catalyst loading, air atmosphere) and exhibited improved stabilty as recycling and reuse could be achieved for multiple consecutive reactions.
