Abstract

We have found that commercially important trialkylchlorosilanes can readily be synthesized by the reaction of alkoxysilanes, silanols, and hydrosilanes with aqueous concentrated hydorochloric acid. Treatment of trialkylalkoxysilanes bearing the bulky alkyl substituents, such as the i-Pr, sec-Bu, tert-Bu, and cyclo-Hex group, with 35% aqueous hydrochloric acid afforded the corresponding trialkylchlorosilanes in excellent yields. Similar treatment of ...
