Phenylmethyldichlorosilanes and diphenylmethylchlorosilanes are prepared by a Grignard process involving the step of contacting a phenyl Grignard reagent, an ether solvent, a trichlorosilane, and an aliphatic or cycloparaffinic hydrocarbon coupling solvent; in a mole ratio of the ether solvent to the phenyl Grignard reagent is 2 to 5, the mole ratio of the trichlorosilane to the phenyl Grignard reagent is 0.1 to 10, and the mole ratio of the aliphatic or cycloparaffinic hydrocarbon coupling solvent to the phenyl Grignard reagent is 3 to 7. Preferred reactants include phenylmagnesium chloride as the phenyl Grignard reagent; diethyl ether as solvent; n-heptane as the aliphatic hydrocarbon coupling solvent, or cyclohexane as the cycloparaffinic hydrocarbon coupling solvent; and methyltrichlorosilane.
