34. Induction periods observed with a 1:2 ratio of Rh and 1c (< 15 min) and with a 1:3 ratio (30 min) can be attributed to suppression of active-species formation by an excess of the ligand at the early stage of the reaction. Although the reaction with 1:2 and 1:3 ratios was complete within 2 h, it afforded silylation product 14 in slightly diminished yields with the formation of small amounts of side products that could not be characterized.
