Abstract

A hydrosilylation reaction catalyst prepared from: a catalyst precursor comprising a transition metal compound, excluding platinum, belonging to group 8-10 of the periodic table, e.g., iron acetate, cobalt acetate, nickel acetate, etc.; and a ligand comprising an isocyanide compound such as t-butyl isocyanide. The hydrosilylation reaction catalyst has excellent handling and storage properties. As a result of using this catalyst, a hydrosilylation reaction can be promoted under gentle conditions.

wherein (i) M is Fe, Co or Ni, a is 1, b is 2, and c is 0; (ii) M is Rh, a is 2, b is 4, and c is or (iii) M is Ru, a is 2, b is 4, and c is 1,
X is a halogen atom,
L is a monovalent organic group of at least one type selected from the formulae (3) to (5),
—O—R 1   (3)

—OCO—R 1   (4)

—OSO 2 —R 1   (5)

wherein R 1 is each independently an optionally substituted, C 1 -C 30 monovalent organic group which may be separated by at least one atom selected from oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur and phosphorus, or a monovalent organic group having the formula (6):
-(A) p -R 2   (6)

wherein A is an optionally substituted, C 1 -C 30 divalent organic group which may be separated by at least one atom selected from oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur and phosphorus,
p is an integer of 0 or 1, satisfying p=0 or 1 when L is a monovalent organic group having formula (3), and p=1 when L is a monovalent organic group having formula (4) or (5),
R 2 is a group having the formula (7):
—{Si(R 3 ) 2 —R 4 } s —Si(R 3 ) d {[(OSi(R 3 ) 2 )] f —R 3 } e   (7)

wherein R 3 is each independently an optionally substituted, C 1 -C 20 alkyl group, C 1 -C 20 alkoxy group, C 6 -C 20 aryl group or C 7 -C 20 aralkyl group which may be separated by at least one atom selected from oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur and phosphorus, R 4 is a C 1 -C 10 divalent hydrocarbon group, s is an integer of 0 or 1, d is an integer of 0 to 3, e is an integer of 0 to 3, satisfying d+e=3, and f is an integer of 1 to 300, and
an isocyanide compound having the formula (2):
Y—(NC) q   (2)

wherein Y is an optionally substituted, C 1 -C 30 monovalent organic group which may be separated by at least one atom selected from oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur and phosphorus, and q is an integer of 1 to 3.

2. The hydrosilylation reaction catalyst of claim 1 wherein in formula (2), q is 1 and in formula (7), s is 0.

3. The hydrosilylation reaction catalyst of claim 1 or 2 which is prepared in a system where hydrosilylation reaction of a compound having an aliphatic unsaturated bond with a hydrosilane compound having a Si—H group or organohydropolysiloxane compound is carried out.

4. The hydrosilylation reaction catalyst of claim 1 wherein L is a monovalent organic group having formula (4).

5. The hydrosilylation reaction catalyst of claim 4 wherein R 1 is a C 1 -C 5 alkyl group which may be substituted with halogen.

6. The hydrosilylation reaction catalyst of claim 1 wherein the isocyanide compound having formula (2) is at least one compound selected from the group consisting of mesityl isocyanide, n-butyl isocyanide, t-butyl isocyanide, 1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl isocyanide, cyclohexyl isocyanide, 1-isocyanoadamantane, 4-tolyl isocyanide, 1,6-diisocyanohexane, and 1, 8-diisocyanooctane.

7. A method for preparing an addition compound comprising the step of carrying out hydrosilylation reaction of a compound having an aliphatic unsaturated bond with a hydrosilane compound having a Si—H group or organohydropolysiloxane compound in the presence of the hydrosilylation reaction catalyst of claim 1 .

8. The method for preparing an addition compound of claim 7 wherein the compound having an aliphatic unsaturated bond is an organopolysiloxane having an alkenyl group.
