Abstract
Abstract The addition of dimethylchlorosilane to vinyldimethylethoxysilane in the presence of chloroplatinic acid yielded 1,2-bis(dimethylchlorosilyl)ethane, 1-(dimethylchlorosilyl)-2-(dimethylethoxysilyl)ethane and 1,2-bis(dimethylethoxysilyl)ethane. The formation of three products is explained on the basis of chloro-ethoxy exchange reactions. Equilibration of the dimethylchlorosilane-vinyldimethylethoxysilane system was investigated using 1 H NMR and gas-liquid chromatography. The equilibrium constants indicated near random behavior for the substituent exchange.
