Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a 500 ml glass flask equipped with a stirring machine, a thermometer, a reflux condenser and a dropping funnel, there were added 91.8 g (1.2 mole) of allyl chloride and 0.03 g of palladium acetate, the temperature of the mixture was raised up to 40 to 45° C., then 136.3 g (1.0 mole) of dimethylphenylsilane was dropwise added to the mixture over 3 hours through the dropping funnel to carry out the reaction of the allyl chloride and the dimethylphenylsilane and the reaction mixture was aged at 50° C. for 3 hours. The reaction solution obtained after the aging was distilled to give a distillate having a boiling point range of from 80 to 84° C./16 mmHg. Thus, 163.9 g of dimethylphenylchlorosilane having a purity of 99.9% was obtained. The yield of the product was found to be 96.0%.
