Procedure
Reaction between styrene and dimethylchlorosilane with platinum catalyst (no substance acting as auxiliary catalyst). 526 mg Styrene and 408 mg dimethylchlorosilane were introduced into a glass tube, and 2.5 mg of a toluene solution of a 0-valent platinum complex of divinylsiloxane (0.04 wt % platinum content) were added. The tube was sealed with Teflon tape and a rubber septum and then placed in a 50° C. oil bath where it was heated for 30 minutes. After cooling, the tube contents were analyzed by gas chromatography revealing a styrene conversion of 98% and a phenethyldimethylchlorosilane yield of 84%. The ratio between the phenethyldimethylchlorosilane and (α-methylbenzyl)dimethylchlorosilane was 4.7:1.
