This invention relates to a hydrosilation process involving the reaction of a compound containing silicon-bonded hydrogen with a compound containing aliphatic unsaturation.
Platinum complexes are known to be useful as catalysts in processes for accelerating the thermally-activated addition reaction between compounds containing silicon-bonded hydrogen and compounds containing aliphatic unsaturation. However, processes for promoting the visible radiation activated addition reaction between these compounds are unknown. Platinum complexes that can be used to initiate ultraviolet radiation activated hydrosilation reactions are also known. However, it is not known whether platinum complexes would be useful for initiating a visible radiation activated hydrosilation reaction.
This invention provides a process for the addition of compounds containing silicon-bonded hydrogen to compounds containing aliphatic unsaturation and compositions suitable for said process. The process is activated by visible radiation and is conducted in the presence of a platinum complex having one cyclopentadienyl group that is eta-bonded to the platinum atom and three aliphatic groups that are sigma-bonded to the platinum atom and a sensitizer that is capable of absorbing visible light and is capable of transferring energy to said platinum complex such that the hydrosilation reaction is initiated upon exposure to visible light. The invention also provides compositions for use in the aforementioned process.
本发明涉及一种含硅键氢的化合物与含脂肪族不饱和化合物反应的加氢工艺。
在加速含硅键氢的化合物与含脂肪族不饱和的化合物之间的热激活加成反应的工艺中,铂络合物是已知的有用催化剂。然而,促进这些化合物之间的可见辐射活化加成反应的工艺尚不清楚。可用于引发紫外线辐射活化加氢反应的铂络合物也是已知的。然而,铂络合物是否可用于引发可见辐射活化的加氢反应还不得而知。
本发明提供了一种将含硅键氢的化合物加到含脂肪族不饱和化合物中的工艺和适用于上述工艺的组合物。该工艺由可见光辐射激活,并在具有一个与铂原子等键结合的环戊二烯基团和三个与铂原子σ键结合的脂肪族基团的铂络合物以及能够吸收可见光并能将能量转移到所述铂络合物的敏化剂存在下进行,从而在暴露于可见光时启动加氢反应。本发明还提供了用于上述工艺的组合物。
