Procedure

A mixture of 75 grams of methyldecylsilane and 202 grams 1-decene was reacted in the presence of 0.0040 grams of chlorotris(triphenylphosphine)rhodium(I) at 87°-95° C. for one hour. The unreacted decene was stripped off under high vacuum and the residue hydrogenated as above. Distillation gave an 80 percent yield of methyltri(decyl)silane having a boiling point of 230°-233° C. (0.95 mm).
