Phenothiazine → (3-Aminopropyl)triethoxysilane

Participants

Reaction Steps

571 parts of allylamine, 0.38 part of [Rh(NBD)2 ](+). BF4(-) (note: NBD: Norbornadiene), 1.0 part of phenothiazine and 1640 parts of triethoxysilane were charged into a sealed tube and allowed to react in an oil bath for 2 hours at 130° C. Following cooling, the product was analyzed with gas chromatography. Aminopropyltriethoxysilane was produced at a yield of 65% and moreover, the ratio of γ:β isomer was 24:1.
