Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

In a minilab pressure reactor of the TINYCLAVE type (BUECHI) with a capacity of 25 ml, 4 g of p-xylene, 4.2 g (0. 055 mol) of allyl chloride and 8.2 g (0.05 mol) of triethoxysilane were mixed intensively with 0.16 mg (10-3 mol %) of chloro-(1,5-cyclooctadiene)iridium(I) dimer at room temperature for one hour. The reaction mixture was then heated at 80° C. for 2 hours in a thermostat. Analysis by gas chromatography gave a product yield of 83% of 3-chloropropyltriethoxysilane.
