Ruthenium complex catalyzed hydrosilylation of esters: a facile transformation of esters to alkyl silyl acetals and aldehydes

Hydrosilylation of esters takes place in the presence of ruthenium catalysts to afford the corresponding alkyl silyl acetals in moderate to good yields, which can be converted into aldehydes by hydrolysis. Hydrosilylation of esters with hydrosilanes takes place in the presence of ruthenium catalysts...
