This example illustrates the preparation of a thiocarboxylate alkoxysilane from a salt of a thiolcarboxylic acid using as a solvent the alcohol corresponding to the silane alkoxy group. Into a 250 ml, three-neck round bottomed flask equipped with magnetic stir bar, temperature probe/controller, heating mantle, addition funnel, condenser, and N2 inlet was charged 63 grams of a 21 weight percent sodium ethoxide in ethanol. Fifteen grams of thiolacetic acid was added slowly, keeping the temperature below 65° C. The solution was allowed to cool to room temperature, and 48 grams of chloropropyltriethoxysilane was added via the addition funnel. After addition was complete, the solution was heated to 70° C. for 24 hours whereupon a white solid formed. Analysis of the solution by gas chromatography showed a 78 percent yield of acetylthiopropyltriethoxysilane.
