A series of triarylphosphanes ( 1a , 2a , 3a , 4a , 5a , 6a , 7a , 8a , 9a , 10a , 11a ) have been synthesized. An X‐ray crystal structure analysis of (2‐bromophenyl)diphenylphosphane ( 1a ) unambiguously confirmed the constitution of the functionalized phosphane. The hydrosilylation reaction of styrene with triethoxysilane catalyzed with RhCl 3 /triarylphosphane was studied. In comparison with the classic Wilkinson's catalyst , rhodium complexes with functionalized triarylphosphane ligands are characterized by a very high catalytic effectiveness for the hydrosilylation of alkene. Among these catalysts tested, RhCl 3 /diphenyl(2‐(trimethylsilyl)phenyl)phosphane ( 8a ) exhibited excellent catalytic properties. Using this silicon‐containing phosphane ligand for the rhodium‐catalyzed hydrosilylation of styrene, both higher conversion of alkene and higher β‐adduct selectivity were obtained than with Wilkinson's catalyst .
