Abstract

Abstract: A new synthetic procedure for the preparation of aromatic chlorosilanes via the palladium-catalyzed reaction of methylchlorodisilanes and aromatic acid chloride is described. The silylative decarbonylation process is solventless, can utilize low metal catalyst loadings (500-1000 ppm Pd), is carried out under moderate conditions (145" C), and selectively gives aromatic chlorosilanes in good yield, generally 60-85'96. The procedure ...
