Cyclopentene → Trichlorocyclopentylsilane

Participants

Reaction Steps

The reaction was performed by agitating the reaction mixture, which was prepared from 19.1 g (0.141 mole) of trichlorosilane, 9.2 g (0.135 mole) of cyclopentene and 0.13 g of the catalyst I corresponding to 23 ppm by weight as platinum based on the total amount of trichlorosilane and cyclopentene, in a glass flask at 30° C. for 22 hours under normal pressure. Only about 22% of the starting reactants had been reacted after the end of this reaction time as determined by the gas chromatographic analysis. Treatment of the reaction mixture after the reaction was performed in the same manner as in Example 1 to give 5.2 g (0.0256 mole) of cyclopentyl trichlorosilane in a yield of 19% as isolated based on the theoretical value.
