Pyrolysis of methylphenyldichlorosilane

Effect of chloralkanes on the phenyltrichlorosilane synthesis by gas phase condensation

“…As reaction temperature is increased, the yield and selectivity of phenyltrichlorosilane increase until reaching their maximum at 600 and 540°C, respectively. The decrease in the yield of phenyltrichlorosilane is believed to be caused by its self-pyrolysis [18].…”
