The reaction of 1,1'-bis(dimethylhydrosilyl)ferrocene with alkynes in the presence of a catalytic amount of ($C_2H_4$)Pt$(PPh_3)_2$ leads to the acyclic mixture of monohydrosilylated and/or dihydrosilylated compounds. But the analogous reactions in the presence of Ni$(PEt_3)_4$ catalyst yield monohydrosilylated compounds or dihydrosilylated products. The monohydrosilylated products were generated from the reactions of alkenes with the silylated ferrocene using nickel catalyst.

Cross-linked network solid polymer electrolytes were prepared by means of in situ hydrosilylation between poly[hydromethylslioxane-g-oligo(ethylene oxide)] and diallyl or triallyl group-containing poly(ethylene glycols). The conductivities of the resulting polymer electrolytes were greatly enhanced upon the addition of poly(ethylene glycol) dimethyl ether (PEGDME) as an ion-conducting plasticizer. Conductivities of the cross-linked polymer electrolytes were more dependent on the molecular weight of PEGDME than on the cross-linkers. The maximum conductivity was found to be 5.6${\times}$10$\^$-4/ S/cm at 30$^{\circ}C$ for the sample containing 75 wt% of PEGDME (M$\_$n/ =400). These electrolytes exhibited electrochemical stability up to 4.5 V against the lithium reference electrode. We observed reversible electrochemical plating/stripping of lithium on the nickel electrode.

The synthesis of 1-[2-(3-{7-oxabicyclo[4.1.0]heptyl} 1,1,3,3-tetramethyl-disiloxane (Mono), which is a key intermediate for the synthesis of monomers applied for photopolymer systems based on the cationic ring opening polymerization, was studied. Mono was successfully synthesized by the hydrosilylation reaction of 4-vinyl-1-cyclohexene 1,2-epoxide (VCHO) with an excess amount of 1,1,3,3-tetramethyldisiloxane (TMDS) in the presence of a Speier catalyst. The structure and the purity of Mono were characterized by FT-IR, $^1H-NMR$, and $^{29}Si-NMR$. The optimum conditions for the hydrosilyation reaction were found to be 1:4 molar ratio of VCHO to TMDS and 5 ppm of the catalyst at the temperature of $55^{\circ}C$.
