Trimethoxysilane → HCID 15405388, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To 3.94 g (24.75 mmol) of purified 1-cyanato-4-(2-propenyl)benzene, prepared as described above, at 65° C. was added 10 μL of a 3% solution of Karstedt's™ catalyst (platinum-divinyltetramethyldisiloxane complex) in xylene (United Chemical Technologies, Bristol, Penn.). Trimethoxysilane (Aldrich) was added in 500 μL increments followed by 10 μL increments of the catalyst solution until NMR showed that the reaction was more than 80% complete. The product was distilled twice to yield 2.94 g (42%) of 3-(4-cyanatophenyl)propyltrimethoxysilane. The structure of the product was verified by IR and NMR.
