SYNTHESIS OF ORGANOHALOSILANE MONOMERS FROM CONVENTIONALLY UNCLEAVABLE DIRECT PROCESS RESIDUE

摘要

Disclosed herein is a catalytic process for the synthesis of organohalosilane monomers from tetraorganodihalodisilanes and other compounds that are not cleaved during the conventional hydrochlorination of Direct Process Residue. The process is characterized by the use of a catalyst containing (1) one or more heterocyclic amines and/or one or more heterocyclic ammonium halides, and (2) one or more quaternary Group 15 onium compounds.
