Allyl chloride → (3-Chloropropyl)(triethyl)silane

Participants

Reaction Steps

Table 1 shows that copper catalysts, especially copper chloride and copper acetate, and copper sulphate, are effective in catalyzing the hydrosilation of allyl chloride with triethylsilane, at 200° C. for 45 hours, yielding quantitatively 3-chloropropyltriethylsilane.
