Participants

Reaction Steps

1.0 mole of 2-chloroethyltrimethoxysilane and 1.1 moles of sodium azide in 500 ml of acetonitrile were heated in the presence of 3 mole percent of the catalyst described in Example 1 (a) for ten hours under stirring and reflux. After separation of the salt the subsequent distillation under reduced pressure gave the 2-azidoethyltrimethoxysilane in a yield of 61 weight percent with the following characteristics:
