The chloro-bridged platinum(II) complex dichlorobis(2,4,6-trimethylpyridine)platinum was found to be an active catalyst for homogeneous hydrogenation and hydrosilylation of olefins and α,β-unsaturated aldehydes and ketones at room temperature and under atmospheric pressure.Hydrosilylation of terminal olefins can be achieved with dimethylphenylsilane and a catalyst/reactant ratio of 10^-6/1.This complex is the first example of a platinum(II) compound containing pyridine ligands having good catalytic activity possibilities.
