- Synthesis and application of immobilized catalysts for the heterogeneously catalyzed cleavage of the Si-Si bond of chloromethyldisilanes
-
Lewis bases like bis(dimethylamide)phosphoryl compounds (2, 5-7), N-heterocycles (8 and 9) and N,N-dialkylamino-3-propylsilanes bearing alkoxy groups are grafted via siloxane bonds onto silica carriers. The preparation and characterisation of 5-9 are reported. The grafted bis(dimethylamide)phosphoryl compounds (2, 5-7) and N-heterocycles (8, 9) are efficient catalysts for the disproportionation of chloromethyldisilanes into chloromethyloligosilanes and chloromethylsilanes. Grafted N,N-dialkylamino-3-propylsilyl compounds heterogeneously catalyze the Si-Si bond cleavage of the disilanes with hydrogen chloride at 170°C in excellent yields. A mixture of chloromethylmonosilanes is obtained. This reaction is also performed under pressure.

- Disilane Cleavage with Selected Alkali and Alkaline Earth Metal Salts
-
The industry-scale production of methylchloromonosilanes in the Müller–Rochow Direct Process is accompanied by the formation of a residue, the direct process residue (DPR), comprised of disilanes MenSi2Cl6-n (n=1–6). Great research efforts have been devoted to the recycling of these disilanes into monosilanes to allow reintroduction into the siloxane production chain. In this work, disilane cleavage by using alkali and alkaline earth metal salts is reported. The reaction with metal hydrides, in particular lithium hydride (LiH), leads to efficient reduction of chlorine containing disilanes but also induces disproportionation into mono- and oligosilanes. Alkali and alkaline earth chlorides, formed in the course of the reduction, specifically induce disproportionation of highly chlorinated disilanes, whereas highly methylated disilanes (n>3) remain unreacted. Nearly quantitative DPR conversion into monosilanes was achieved by using concentrated HCl/ether solutions in the presence of lithium chloride.

- Making Use of the Direct Process Residue: Synthesis of Bifunctional Monosilanes
-
The industrial production of monosilanes MenSiCl4?n (n=1–3) through the Müller–Rochow Direct Process generates disilanes MenSi2Cl6?n (n=2–6) as unwanted byproducts (“Direct Process Residue”, DPR) by the thousands of tons annually, large quantities of which are usually disposed of by incineration. Herein we report a surprisingly facile and highly effective protocol for conversion of the DPR: hydrogenation with complex metal hydrides followed by Si?Si bond cleavage with HCl/ether solutions gives (mostly bifunctional) monosilanes in excellent yields. Competing side reactions are efficiently suppressed by the appropriate choice of reaction conditions.

- Synthesis of Functional Monosilanes by Disilane Cleavage with Phosphonium Chlorides
-
The Müller–Rochow direct process (DP) for the large-scale production of methylchlorosilanes MenSiCl4?n (n=1–3) generates a disilane residue (MenSi2Cl6?n, n=1–6, DPR) in thousands of tons annually. This report is on methylchlorodisilane cleavage reactions with use of phosphonium chlorides as the cleavage catalysts and reaction partners to preferably obtain bifunctional monosilanes MexSiHyClz (x=2, y=z=1; x,y=1, z=2; x=z=1, y=2). Product formation is controlled by the reaction temperature, the amount of phosphonium chloride employed, the choice of substituents at the phosphorus atom, and optionally by the presence of hydrogen chloride, dissolved in ethers, in the reaction mixture. Replacement of chloro by hydrido substituents at the disilane backbone strongly increases the overall efficiency of disilane cleavage, which allows nearly quantitative silane monomer formation under comparably moderate conditions. This efficient workup of the DPR thus not only increases the economic value of the DP, but also minimizes environmental pollution.

- Lewis Base Catalyzed Selective Chlorination of Monosilanes
-
A preparatively facile, highly selective synthesis of bifunctional monosilanes R2SiHCl, RSiHCl2 and RSiH2Cl is reported. By chlorination of R2SiH2 and RSiH3 with concentrated HCl/ether solutions, the stepwise introduction of Si?Cl bonds is readily controlled by temperature and reaction time for a broad range of substrates. In a combined experimental and computational study, we establish a new mode of Si?H bond activation assisted by Lewis bases such as ethers, amines, phosphines, and chloride ions. Elucidation of the underlying reaction mechanisms shows that alcohol assistance through hydrogen-bond networks is equally efficient and selective. Remarkably, formation of alkoxysilanes or siloxanes is not observed under moderate reaction conditions.

- Honeycomb-like CuO/ZnO hybrid nanocatalysts prepared from solid waste generated in the organosilane industry
-
We report the preparation of honeycomb-like CuO/ZnO (CZx/y) nanocatalysts with CuO nanospheres (NSs) adhered with ZnO nanoparticles (NPs) for the Rochow reaction. The synthesis was carried out via adsorption of Cu2+/Zn2+ ions on carbon black (CB) which acted as both the agglomeration inhibitor and the hard template, and followed by calcination in air. The low cost Cu2+/Zn2+ ions were recovered from the solid waste generated in the organosilane industry via a simple ammonia leaching treatment. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and temperature-programmed reduction. The as-obtained CZx/y nanohybrids had a honeycomb-like structure with large voids and openings among the CuO NSs. When re-used as a Cu-based catalyst for the Rochow reaction, the CZx/y NPs sample with an optimized ratio showed significantly improved dimethyldichlorosilane (M2) selectivity and silicon (Si) conversion as compared with the CuO/ZnO NPs prepared in the absence of CB, discrete CuO or ZnO NPs and the CuO/ZnO NPs with different compositions, mainly due to the unique honeycomb-like structure, smaller crystal size and synergistic electronic effect at the interface between Cu and ZnO in CZx/y NPs.

- Controllable wet synthesis of multicomponent copper-based catalysts for Rochow reaction
-
This work aims to provide a facile, low-cost and scalable method for the preparation of multicomponent Cu-Cu2O-CuO catalysts, which are of high interest to the organosilane industry. A series of submicrometer-sized and Cu-based catalysts containing CuO, Cu2O and Cu, or some combination of them, were synthesized by a simple low-temperature wet chemical method using CuSO4·5H2O as the precursor and N2H4·H2O as a reducing agent. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetric analysis, temperature-programmed reduction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and scanning electron microscopy techniques. It was observed that the composition of the samples could be tailored by varying the amount of reducing agent at a given reaction temperature and time. These catalysts were then tested in the Rochow reaction, using silicon powder and methyl chloride (MeCl) as reactants to produce dimethyldichlorosilane (M2), which is the most important organosilane monomer in the industry. Compared with bare CuO and Cu particles, the ternary CuO-Cu2O-Cu catalyst displayed much improved M2 selectivity and Si conversion, which can be attributed to the smaller copper particle size and the synergistic effect among the different components in the CuO-Cu2O-Cu catalyst. This catalyst preparation method is expected to yield efficient and low-cost copper catalysts for the organosilane industry.

- Heterojunctions generated in SnO2-CuO nanocatalysts for improved catalytic property in the Rochow reaction
-
We report the improved catalytic performance of SnO2-CuO hybrid nanocatalysts synthesized by rationally designing and controlling the local heterojunction structure. The SnO2 nanoparticle (NP) decorated CuO nanorods (NRs) (SnO2-CuO) with a mace-like structure and with various CuO:SnO2 ratios were prepared via depositing pre-synthesized SnO2 NPs on CuO NRs in the presence of polyvinylpyrrolidone molecules. The CuO NRs were obtained by a facile hydrothermal reaction using Cu(NO3)2·3H2O as the precursor. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and temperature-programmed reduction analyses. The results indicated that in the SnO2-CuO hybrid nanostructures, the heterojunctions were well generated as the SnO2 NPs were well dispersed on the CuO NRs. Their catalytic performances were then explored via the Rochow reaction, in which solid silicon (Si) reacts with gaseous methyl chloride (MeCl) to produce dimethyldichlorosilane (M2). Compared to separate CuO and SnO2 as well as their physical mixture, the SnO2-CuO hybrids exhibit significantly enhanced M2 selectivity and Si conversion because of the enhanced synergistic interaction between SnO2 and CuO due to the generated heterojunctions. This work demonstrates that the performance of heterogeneous catalysts can be improved by carefully designing and controlling their structures even when their composition remains unchanged.

- Synergistic effect in bimetallic copper-silver (CuxAg) nanoparticles enhances silicon conversion in Rochow reaction
-
The oleylamine thermal reduction process was employed to prepare bimetallic copper-silver (CuxAg (0 ≤ x ≤ 50)) nanoparticles, such as Cu, Cu50Ag, Cu20Ag, Cu10Ag, Cu5Ag, CuAg, CuAg2, and Ag, by using Cu(CH3COO)2 and AgNO3 as the precursors. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The CuxAg hybrid nanostructure showed good particle dispersion, and Cu and Ag metals were well mixed. The catalytic properties of these bimetallic CuxAg nanoparticles as model catalysts for the Rochow reaction were explored. Compared to monometallic Cu and Ag nanoparticles, bimetallic CuxAg nanoparticles resulted in a much higher silicon conversion, which is attributed to the synergistic electronic effect between Cu and Ag metals. For example, the Cu atom was observed to have a lower electron density in the CuxAg bimetallic nanoparticle than that in monometallic Cu nanoparticles, which enhanced the formation of methylchlorosilanes on the silicon surface with chloromethane, demonstrating the significance of the CuxAg bimetallic catalysts in catalytic reactions during organosilane synthesis. The insights gained in this study should be conducive to the design of good Cu-based catalysts for the Rochow reaction.

- Controllably oxidized copper flakes as multicomponent copper-based catalysts for the Rochow reaction
-
The metallic Cu flakes prepared by milling metallic Cu powder were controllably oxidized in air at different temperatures to obtain the Cu-based catalysts containing multicomponents of Cu, Cu2O, and CuO. These catalysts are explored in the Rochow reaction using silicon powder and methyl chloride (MeCl) as reactants to produce dimethyldichlorosilane (M2), which is the most important organosilane monomer in the industry. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction, temperature-programmed reduction, thermogravimetric analysis, oxidimetry analysis, particle size analysis, transmission electron microscopy, and scanning electron microscopy. Compared to the metallic Cu powder and Cu flakes, the controllably oxidized Cu flakes containing Cu, Cu2O, and CuO species show much higher M2 selectivity and silicon conversion in the Rochow reaction. The enhanced catalytic performance may stem from the larger interfacial contact among the gas MeCl, solid Si particles, and solid Cu-based catalyst flakes, as well as the synergistic effect among the different Cu species. The work would be helpful to the development of novel Cu-based catalysts for organosilane synthesis.

- Flower-like ZnO grown on urchin-like CuO microspheres for catalytic synthesis of dimethyldichlorosilane
-
We report the rational growth of flower-like ZnO on urchin-like CuO (f-ZnO@u-CuO) microspheres via a facile solvothermal method using copper nitrate and zinc nitrate as precursors in the presence of sodium nitrate and ethanol. A formation mechanism was proposed based on the observation of a series of reaction intermediates. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometer, and temperature-programmed reduction. It was found that the morphology of the samples was highly dependent on the synthesis conditions, particularly the reaction time and the ammonia amount added. As a copper-based catalyst for dimethyldichlorosilane synthesis via the Rochow reaction, f-ZnO@u-CuO microspheres show better catalytic performance than the Cu-based catalysts physically mixed with ZnO promoter, probably because of the well-developed p-n heterojunction structures at the CuO and ZnO interfaces that generate a much strong synergistic effect. The work provides a simple method to synthesize hierarchical CuO/ZnO composites and would be helpful for understanding the catalytic mechanism of the Rochow reaction.

- Process for preparing alkylchlorosilanes from the residues of direct synthesis of alkylchlorsilanes
-
The invention provides a continuous process for preparing alkylchlorosilanes from the residues of direct synthesis of alkylchlorosilanes which comprise liquid constituents with a boiling point of at least 70° C. at 1013 hPa and may also contain solids, with hydrogen chloride, by passing the residues at a temperature not above 200° C. and hydrogen chloride at a temperature higher than the latter into a reactor so that the resultant reaction temperature is from 400° C. to 800° C.

- Process for preparing organohalosilanes
-
Organohalosilanes are prepared by reacting metallic silicon with a halogenated hydrocarbon in the presence of a copper or copper compound catalyst and an activated aluminum, aluminum alloy or aluminum carbide promotor. The reaction is carried out at a temperature of 250-400° C. in a stirred tank reactor or a fluidized bed reactor. The inventive process shortens the time required for activation in the Rochow reaction and increases the selectivity for desirable diorganodihalosilanes. The steady state is thus prolonged and conversion of the silicon enhanced, resulting in an improved reaction performance.

- Bis(chloromethylsilyl)amine and bis(chloromethylsilyl)methylamine; preparation, reactivity and spectroscopic studies of their stereoisomers and conformers
-
The compounds NH(SiHMeCl)2 I and NMe(SiHMeCl)2 2 have been prepared by treating SiHMeCl2 with CaCl2·8NH3 and NH2Me respectively. Each was characterised by elemental analysis, mass spectrometry, NMR and IR spectroscopy. Dipole moments were also measured. The NMR spectra indicate that both compounds form 1:1 mixtures of the rac and meso diastereomers, their abundances corresponding to a statistically controlled synthetic pathway. The NMR and mass spectra also show that 1,5-dichloro-1,2,3,4,5-pentamethyltrisilazane, SiHMe[NMe(SiHMeCl)]2 3, which is formed as a side product in the synthesis of 2, also consists of two diastereomers. Variable-temperature 1H NMR spectra of NH(SiHMeCl)2 indicate participation of H(N) in hydrogen bonding. The compound is decomposed by heat and reacts with pyridine to form NH4Cl, SiHMeCl2 and polysilazanes, whereas NMe(SiHMeCl)2 shows only slight decomposition up to 80°C and does not react with pyridine. Infrared spectra in the v(SiH) region are interpreted in terms of the results of ab initio calculations of frequency, intensity and conformer abundance. The two bands near 2200 cm-1 in the spectrum of 2 have their origin in two effects: different orientations of the Si-H bonds relative to the Si-N-Si plane in several conformers and an unprecedented strong dipole-dipole coupling between the two Si-H bond stretching motions in situations where the bonds are roughly parallel. The absence of such an observed splitting for 1 is likely to be due in part to signal averaging during a free internal rotation. Significant couplings are also calculated to occur between Si-Cl bond-stretching motions, whose source must be different from that for the Si-H bond stretches.

- Kinetics of dichlorosilylene trapping by methane and mechanism and kinetics of the methyldichlorosilane decomposition
-
Data relative to methane trapping of SiCl2 and a rate constant for the SiCl2 into C-H bond insertion process of k-1 = 13.4 M-1s-1 at 921 K are reported. Results on the decomposition of the trapping product, methyldichlorosilane, are also reported. This decomposition follows first-order kinetics with a rate constant of k = 1.5±0.2×10-3 s-1 at 905 K and produces methane, trichlorosilane, methyltrichlorosilane, and tetrachlorosilane. It is argued that the decomposition involves silylene intermediates, is nonchain, and is initiated primarily by the molecular methane elimination process MeSiHCl2-1→CH4+SiCl2. Free radicals and Si-C bond fission may also contribute to the decomposition but are not dominant. The kinetics of MeSiHCl2 decomposition are shown to be consistent with the kinetics of the reverse SiCl2/CH4 trapping reaction and with the overall reaction thermochemistry. Reaction modeling gives product yields, reactant conversions, and rates in reasonable agreement with the data.

- Intermediacy of surface silylene in the direct synthesis of methylchlorosilanes
-
The reaction of silicon with methyl chloride was carried out in the presence of butadiene. The products consisted of 1,1-dichlorosila-cyclopent-3-ene, 1-methyl-1-chlorosilacyclopent-3-ene and 1-chlorosilacyclopent-3-ene besides methylchlorosilanes. Silacyclopent-3-enes accounted for 25% of the whole products. The high selectivity for silacyclopent-3-enes indicates that surface silylene is the intermediate in the reaction of silicon with methyl chloride.

- Hydrogenation of Silicium-Halogen-Compounds with Trialkylstannyl Chloride/Sodium Hydride
-
Organotinchlorides of the general formula R3SnCl and R2SnCl2 (R = Me, n-Bu, Ph) can easily be converted into the corresponding hydrides R3SiH and R2SiH2 employing NaH in diethylene glycol dialkyl ethers.Using trialkyltinhydrides like Bu3SnH in combination with a catalyst (tertiary amines, N-heterocycles, phosphonium or ammonium salts), Si-Cl bonds in mono- and disilanes are hydrogenated.In the case of disilanes, Si-Si bond cleavage and concurrent hydrogenation can be afforded with strongly nucleophilic catalysts.Partial hydrogenation is also possible.The whole process can be run cyclically. - Keywords: Alkylstannylhydride; Hydrogenation; Organochlorsilane.

- The role of silylenes in the direct synthesis of methylchlorosilanes
-
From butadiene trapping experiments in a batch flow reactor, the silylene intermediates SiMeCl and SiCl2 are shown to be formed during the Direct Synthesis.Two types of silylene intermediate are believed to be involved.Silylenoids are formed on the surface where they react with methyl chloride yielding methylchlorosilanes (SiMeCl gives Me2SiCl2, SiCl2 gives MeSiCl3) in accordance with the van den Berg mechanism.Free silylenes are released into the gas phase, where they may be trapped by butadiene, but are not directly involved in methylchlorosilane production.The addition of Me3SiH to the methyl chloride promotes radical reactions; the major product is Me3SiCl.Me3SiCl is believed to result from an efficient chain sequence proceeding mainly on the surface involving Me3Si. radicals which scavenge surface-bound chlorine.

Disilane dervatives undergo disproportionation reactions to polysilanes.Investigated were 1,2-dimethyldisilane and 1,2-dimethyltetrachlorodisilane with catalysts like NH4Cl, AgCN, and Na-cyanamide.In case of 1,2-dimethylsilane, with more than catalytic amounts of NH4Cl, a nitrogen containing polysilane is formed.Two new compounds MeSiH(NCO)2 and Me2Si2(NCO)4 were synthesized and characterized.The last one leads to a polymer at heating.Additionally an electrochemical formation of polydimethylsilane is described.

- Direct Formation of (CH3)2HSiCl from Silicon and CH3Cl
-
A Cu-catalyzed reaction procedure was found for the selective formation of dimethylchlorosilane from the direct reaction of CH3Cl with solid Si.The new procedure is a two-step process.A Cu/Si sample is prepared by evaporating Cu onto clean polycrystalline Si under ultrahigh vacuum, and the Cu/Si surface is first activated by exposure to 10percent HSiCl3/CH3Cl at 598 K.After the HSiCl3/CH3Cl mixture is evacuated from the reactor, the activated Cu/Si surface is reacted in fresh CH3Cl.For low surface concentrations of Cu, the partially hydrogenated silane, (CH3)2HSiCl, is selectively produced.Trichlorosilane was also found to activate polycrystalline Si (in the absence of Cu) for production of highly chlorinated methylchlorosilanes at a much higher rate than on the Cu/Si surface but with poor selectivity to (CH3)2HSiCl.All reactions are carried out at atmospheric pressure in a reactor that is attached to an ultrahigh-vacuum chamber.This allows surface analysis by Auger electron spectroscopy, which detected SiClx on reacted surfaces.These SiClx sites, which appear necessary for methylchlorosilane formation, are apparently formed during activation by HSiCl3.

- Hydroalkenyloxysilanes
-
The invention provides a novel class of organosilicon compounds which are hydrogenalkenyloxysilanes represented by the general formula STR1 in which R1 is a monovalent hydrocarbon group having from 1 to 8 carbon atoms, R2, R3 and R4 are each a hydrogen atom or a monovalent hydrocarbon group having from 1 to 8 carbon atoms and n is a number of zero, 1 or 2. The silane compounds are readily obtained by the dehydrochlorination reaction between a corresponding hydrogen-containing chlorosilane compound and an α, β-unsaturated aldehyde compound or a ketone compound in the presence of an acid acceptor. The compounds are useful as a modifying agent in the silicone technology and also serve as a curing agent.

Partial reduction of MeSiCl3 and Me2SiCl2 using CaH2 or (TiH2)n at high temperature (300°C) leads to MeSiHCl2 and Me2SiHCl, respectively, in good yields but in low proportion. In the presence of AlCl3 as catalyst the reaction affords Me2SiCl2 and Me3SiCl, in yields higher than those previously observed in the absence of a reducing agent. These redistribution reactions involve MeSiHCl2 and Me2SiHCl as intermediates. Consequently Me2SiHCl with or without Me2SiCl2 and Alcl3 deposited on carbon black as catalyst can undergo disproportionation to give Me3SiCl.

- Stabilization of light-sensitive polymers
-
4-Siloxy-derivatives of sterically hindered piperidines are good light-stabilizers for organic polymers, especially for polyolefins. The stabilizers are added in an amount of from 0.01 to 5% by weight, preferably 0.02 to 1% by weight based on the polymer. The new compounds are obtainable by O-silylation of the corresponding 4-hydroxypiperidines.
