Conditions

Temperature
170 °C

Procedure

In a 25 ml oven dried stainless steel tube, 0.22 g (0.67 mmol) of benzyltributylphosphonium chloride, 1.00 g (6.73 mmol) of 1-chlorooctane, and 2.71 g (20.0 mmol) of trichlorosilane were added under a dry nitrogen atmosphere. After sealing the cylinder with a cap, the reactor was maintained at 170° C. for 2 hrs. The resulting mixture was distilled to yield 1.45 g of n-octyltrichlorosilane (yield; 87%).

Workup
