Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <bold>Capitalizing on cobalt</bold>: A new route to silyl enol ethers employing a Co‐catalyzed cascade reaction featuring a tandem hydrosilation/hydrogen‐transfer reaction is reported. The low catalyst loading, mild reaction conditions, and unique η²‐silane resting state showcase the impressive utility of this seldom used transition‐metal catalyst in CH activation reactions (see scheme; VTMS = vinyltrimethylsilane; Cp* = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5‐pentamethylcyclopentadiene).<boxed-text content-type="graphic" position="anchor" orientation="portrait"><graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgg2771p0qx" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></boxed-text></p> </abstract>
