Catalytic reactions of hydrosiloxanes with allyl chloride

Catalytic reactivity of Si–H bond of di-, trisiloxanes with allyl chloride in the presence of platinum catalyst has been examined. Hydrosilylation process competes with hydrogen substitution by chlorine and/or propenyl group. The effect of the reaction conditions as well as structure of siloxane on the yield and selectivity of the number of products has been discussed. Several consecutive-competitive processes have been identified. The results obtained can be helpful in the study of the catalytic hydropolysiloxanes reactions with allyl derivatives–systems of great practical importance, to produce commercial functionalized silicones.
