Reactivity Profile

PROPYL TRICHLOROSILANE reacts violently with water, steam, moist air, alcohols, acetone, and light metals with generation of heat and flammable (H2) and corrosive (HCl) gases.

Hazard

Flammable, moderate fire risk. Strong irri- tant.

Health Hazard

TOXIC; inhalation, ingestion or contact (skin, eyes) with vapors, dusts or substance may cause severe injury, burns or death. Bromoacetates and chloroacetates are extremely irritating/lachrymators. Reaction with water or moist air will release toxic, corrosive or flammable gases. Reaction with water may generate much heat that will increase the concentration of fumes in the air. Fire will produce irritating, corrosive and/or toxic gases. Runoff from fire control or dilution water may be corrosive and/or toxic and cause pollution.

Fire Hazard

HIGHLY FLAMMABLE: Will be easily ignited by heat, sparks or flames. Vapors form explosive mixtures with air: indoors, outdoors and sewers explosion hazards. Most vapors are heavier than air. They will spread along ground and collect in low or confined areas (sewers, basements, tanks). Vapors may travel to source of ignition and flash back. Substance will react with water (some violently) releasing flammable, toxic or corrosive gases and runoff. Contact with metals may evolve flammable hydrogen gas. Containers may explode when heated or if contaminated with water.

Flammability and Explosibility

Flammable

Safety Profile

Confirmed carcinogen with experimental carcinogenic, neoplastigenic, and tumorigenic data. Poison by intraperitoneal route. Moderately toxic by ingestion. Human systemic effects: agranulocytosis, hepatitis, jaundice. Human teratogenic effects by ingestion:developmental abnormalities of the endocrine system and changes in newborn viability. Human and experimental teratogenic and reproductive effects. Human mutation data reported. When heated to decomposition it emits very toxic fumes of SOx, and NOx. See also MERCAPTANS.

The hydrosilylation of propylene

The reactions of separate and competitive hydrosilylation of propylene with HSiCl3, MeSiHCl2, Me2SiHCl, and MePh2SiH in the presence of the Speier catalyst (SC) with different additives and a catalyst obtained from SC and propylene were studied. A mutual influence of the hydrosilanes in the competitive reactions was found. The influence of various additives to SC on the process was considered.

Liquid-liquid biphasic, platinum-catalyzed hydrosilylation of allyl chloride with trichlorosilane using an ionic liquid catalyst phase in a continuous loop reactor

The platinum-catalyzed hydrosilylation of allyl chloride with trichlorosilane was investigated in an ionic liquid-organic biphasic reaction mode. After an ionic liquid screening and repetitive batch mode experiments, the process was realized in a continuous mode using a loop reactor concept with integrated continuous separation and recycling of the ionic liquid catalyst phase. The continuous reactor could be operated for 48 h at constant activity and selectivity without addition of platinum indicating that platinum leaching into the product phase was far below 1 ppm. Enhanced selectivity for the product trichloro(3-chloropropyl)silane (compared to the state-of-the art) and the possibility to use simple platinum tetrachloride (PtCl4) as platinum source are further attractive features of this new ionic liquid-based process concept.

Hydrosilylation of cyclohexene and allyl chloride with trichloro-, dichloro(methyl)-, and chlorodimethylsilanes in the presence of Pt(0) complexes

Hydrosilylation of cyclohexene and allyl chloride in the presence of Pt(0) complexes with tetramethyldivinyldisiloxane (Karstedt catalyst) and hexavinyldisiloxane was studied. It was shown that these catalysts are much more active in the hydrosilylation of cyclohexene with trichloro-, dichloro(methyl)-, and chlorodimethylsilane than the Pt(II)-containing Speier catalyst. In the hydrosilylation of allyl chloride in the presence of Pt(0) complexes, the ratio of the fraction of addition products to the fraction of reduction products increases from 5.7 (Speier catalyst) to 10-16. Quantum-chemical calculations showed that Pt(0) complexes are more active than Pt(II) complexes on the stage of formation of platinum silicon hydride complexes. Pleiades Publishing, Inc., 2006.
