Abstract

For example, the reaction of butyl vinyl ether with trichloro (phenyl) silane at a 1: 1 molar ratio at 20oC gives vinyl chloride and dichloro (butoxy) phenylsilane in a near-quantitative yield (96%). At 2: 1 and 3: 1 reagent molar ratios, a mixture of chloro (butoxy)-phenylsilanes PhSi (OBu) 3! nCln (n= 032) is formed. The major component of the mixture is dichloro (butoxy) phenylsilane.
