Guaiacol → Tri-isopropyl silyl acrylate

Participants

Reaction Steps

72.1 g (1 mol) of glacial acrylic acid, 101.2 g (1 mol) of triethylamine 0.072 g of methoxyphenol and 300 ml of xylene is added to a four-neck, round bottom flask equipped with a stirrer, condenser, nitrogen inlet, thermometer and dropping funnel. Under a nitrogen blanket, a solution of 192.8 g (1 mol) of triisopropylchlorosilane in 100 ml of xylene is slowly added to the rapidly stirred reactants at room temperature. The temperature is permitted to rise to a maximum temperature of 55° C. and this temperature is maintained with cooling if necessary.
