This non-provisional application claims priority under 35 U.S.C. § 119(a) on Patent Application No. 2021-075964 filed in Japan on Apr. 28, 2021, the entire contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference.
This invention relates to a method for preparing halosilane compounds.
Silicon-containing compounds are used in various applications as silane compounds, silicone rubbers, silicone resins, and many other products. Among these, silane compounds are utilized as silane coupling agents and surface treating agents. It is useful to establish a method for efficiently preparing silane compounds.
One known method for preparing silane compounds is addition reaction (or hydrosilylation reaction) of unsaturated bond-containing compounds with hydrosilane compounds in the presence of metal catalysts such as platinum, rhodium and iridium catalysts. The hydrosilylation reaction is widely utilized in the industry because of least wastes formed in the course of reaction and superior atom economy.
In the hydrosilylation reaction, however, often the desired silane compound is not obtained alone because isomerization by-products are formed as a result of isomerization of unsaturated bonds in reactants and addition-isomer by-products are formed as a result of addition of hydrosilane compounds at different positions. It is desired to reduce these by-products.
As hydrosilane compound, for example, chlorosilane and alkoxysilane compounds are used. Of the chlorosilane compounds, many reports describe the use of trichlorosilane and methyldichlorosilane. On the other hand, few reports describe the use of dialkylchlorosilanes such as dimethylchlorosilane because of low reaction selectivity and more by-products. Such reaction using platinum catalysts is known from Patent Documents 1 and 2, rhodium catalysts from Patent Document 3, and iridium catalysts from Patent Documents 4 and 5.
On use of platinum catalysts as described in Patent Documents 1 and 2, the desired silane compound is obtained merely in a yield of about 70 to 80%, even when co-catalysts are added, because of isomerization of unsaturated bonds and formation of addition isomers.
On use of rhodium catalysts as described in Patent Document 3, a vinyl compound must be added dropwise to dimethylchlorosilane. In the reaction system, disproportionation of dimethylchlorosilane can take place to give off hydrogen and highly volatile dimethylchlorosilane will scatter. The dropwise addition of dimethylchlorosilane to a vinyl compound is thus desirable in the industrial production.
On use of iridium catalysts as described in Patent Documents 4 and 5, the desired silane compound is selectively synthesized because formation of by-products such as addition isomers is restrained as compared with platinum catalysts. This method, however, must use highly reactive reactants such as halogenated allyl compounds (Patent Document 4) or carboxylic acid allyl esters (Patent Document 5), that is, the range of applicable reactants is limited. In the case of low reactive reactants, greater amounts of expensive iridium catalysts must be used. The method is thus not regarded adequate for the industrial scale of manufacture.
An object of the invention is to provide a method for preparing halosilane compounds on an industrial scale with advantages including low costs, high yields, and high selectivity, through hydrosilylation reaction of halogenodiorganosilane compounds such as dimethylchlorosilane while reducing the amount of expensive iridium catalysts used.
The inventors have found that in a method for preparing a halosilane compound through hydrosilylation reaction of a vinyl compound with a halogenodiorganosilane compound in the presence of an iridium catalyst, quite unexpectedly, the deactivation of the iridium catalyst in the course of reaction is retarded by adding an internal olefin compound and a halogenated allyl compound to the reaction system. The halosilane compound can be prepared at low costs, in high yields, and with a high selectivity while reducing the amount of the iridium catalyst used.
In one aspect, the invention provides a method for preparing a halosilane compound comprising the step of effecting hydrosilylation reaction of a vinyl compound having the general formula (1):

YCH2CH═CH2 (6)
wherein Y is halogen, exclusive of the vinyl compound having formula (1).
Typically, the halogenated allyl compound is allyl chloride or allyl bromide.
In the reaction system, the halogenated allyl compound is preferably present in an amount of 0.00001 to 1 mole per mole of the vinyl compound.
In a preferred embodiment, the iridium catalyst is an iridium complex having the general formula (7):

wherein R10 and R11 are each independently a C1-C5 divalent hydrocarbon group, R10 and R11 may bond together to form a ring with the carbon atoms to which they are attached, and Z is halogen.
