1,5-Hexadiene → Bis{(2-phenylpropyl)dichlorosilyl}hexane

Participants

Reaction Steps

In the same apparatus and procedures as EXAMPLE 1, 21.3 g (0.097 mole) of 3-(phenyl)-1,1-dichloro-1-silabutane and 100 μl of 1% chloroplatinic acid solution in isopropanol were placed and then 3.2 g (0.039 mole) of 1,5-hexadiene was added dropwise for 5 min. The solution was reacted for 15 hours at reflux under the dry nitrogen atmosphere. Vacuum distillation gave 13.4 g (185°-187° C./0.03 mmHg) of bis{(2-phenylpropyl)dichlorosilyl}hexane in 66.0% yield.
