Abstract:
Hydrosilylation of aliphatically unsaturated compounds (B) with compounds (A) bearing silicon-bonded hydrogen using a metal-containing hydrosilylation catalyst proceeds with higher yields and reduced quantities of byproducts when conducted in the presence of organic salts containing an inorganic or organic anion [Y]− and a heteroatom-containing cation [A]+ in amounts of 0.01 mole % to 10 mole % based on the limiting amount of (A) or (B) in moles present in the reaction.

CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS 
       [0001]    This application is the U.S. National Phase of PCT Appln. No. PCT/EP2015/053621 filed Feb. 20, 2015, which claims priority to German Application No. 10 2014 203 770.0 filed Feb. 28, 2014, the disclosures of which are incorporated in their entirety by reference herein. 
     
    
     BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
       [0002]    1. Field of the Invention 
         [0003]    The invention relates to a process for preparing organosilicon compounds by hydrosilylation with the aid of a transition metal catalyst and with addition of organic salts which comprise one or more heteroatoms. 
         [0004]    2. Description of the Related Art 
         [0005]    In the prior art, organosilicon compounds are prepared by the Müller-Rochow synthesis. The functionalized organosilanes are of great economic significance, particularly the halogen-substituted species, since they serve as starting products for the production of numerous important products, examples being silicones, adhesion promoters, water repellents, and architectural preservatives. However, this direct synthesis is not equally suited to all silanes. Preparation of less common, so-called “deficiency” silanes by this route is difficult, and is possible only with poor yields and selectivities. 
         [0006]    One way of preparing deficiency silanes is to convert easily preparable silanes (over abundant silanes) into deficiency silanes by means of a substituent exchange reaction. A process of this kind for substituent exchange of organochlorosilanes with other organochlorosilanes is described in DE 101 57 198 A1, for example. Here, a substituent exchange reaction takes place on the silicon atom, and an organosilane is disproportionated in the presence of an ionic liquid or reacted with another organosilane in a substituent exchange reaction. 
         [0007]    The hydrosilylation of 1-alkenes is known to be catalyzed via metal complexes of the platinum group. In particular, platinum complexes such as, for example, those known as Speier catalyst [H 2 PtCl 6 *6 H 2 O] and Karstedt solution, a complex compound of [H 2 PtCl 6 *6 H 2 O] and vinyl-substituted disiloxanes, are known to be highly active catalysts. 
         [0008]    In certain cases, the transition-metal-catalyzed hydrosilylation reaction is notable for insufficient selectivity and low yield. Processes described in the literature attempt to circumvent these limitations by using alternative solvents, such as, for example, ionic liquids—DE 10 2006 029 430 A, CN 101033235 A, PL 212882 B1; use of linear carbonyl compounds and/or esters—EP 0 856 517 A1; or silyl esters, amide compounds having N—Si bonds, urea compounds, phosphoric acid compounds, or hydroxypyridine compounds, as described in DE 601 05 986 T2, among others. 
       SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 
       [0009]    It was an object of the present invention to provide a process for preparing silanes by hydrosilylation that is distinguished by very high selectivity and yield in respect of the desired silanes and also by ease of technical realization. These and other objects are provided by a process for addition of Si-bonded hydrogen onto an aliphatic carbon-carbon multiple bond by reaction of 
         [0000]    (A) organosilicon compounds having Si-bonded hydrogen atoms with
 
(B) compounds which have aliphatic carbon-carbon multiple bonds, in the presence of
 
(C) a metal catalyst which promotes the addition of Si-bonded hydrogen onto aliphatic multiple bonds, in an amount of 1 to 500 mol-ppm, preferably 1 to 200 mol-ppm, more preferably 1 to 70 mol-ppm, in each case based on the limiting component (A) or (B) used, and of
 
(D) at least one organic salt of the general formula
 
         [0000]      [A] + [Y] −   (5),
 
         [0000]    where
 
[Y] −  is an inorganic or organic anion and
 
[A] +  is an organic cation which contains at least one heteroatom selected from the group consisting of nitrogen, phosphorus, oxygen, and sulfur, in an amount of 0.01 to 10 mol %, preferably 0.1 to 5 mol %, more preferably 0.1 to 2 mol %, in each case based on the limiting component (A) or (B),
 
with the proviso that the molar ratio of metal atom in component (C) to salt (D) is 1:1 to 1:500, preferably 1:1 to 1:200, more preferably 1:1 to 1:25.

         [0029]    Furthermore, in the process of the invention, aliphatically unsaturated organosilicon compounds (B2) may be used as constituent (B), but this is not preferred. 
         [0030]    The organosilicon compounds (B2) are preferably silanes or linear, cyclic, or branched siloxanes composed of units of the formula 
         [0000]      R 2   e R 3   f SiO (4-e-f)/2   (4),

         [0031]    The organosilicon compounds (B2) used in accordance with the invention may be silanes, i.e., compounds of the formula (4) with e+f=4, and siloxanes, i.e. compounds composed of units of the formula (4) with e+f≦3. 
         [0032]    Examples of organosilicon compounds (B2) are trimethylvinylsilane, 1,2-divinyltetramethyldisiloxane, and vinyl-terminated organopolysiloxanes. 
         [0033]    The components (A) and (B) used in accordance with the invention are commercial products and/or are preparable by methods common within chemistry. 
         [0034]    In one preferred embodiment of the process of the invention, HSiCl 3 , HSiMeCl 2 , or HSiMe 2 Cl is used as compound (A), and allyl chloride is used as component (B); here, Me is methyl radical. 
         [0035]    In the process of the invention, constituent (B) is preferably used in an amount such that the molar ratio of aliphatically unsaturated groups in constituent (B) to SiH groups in constituent (A) is 20:1 to 1:20, more preferably 10:1 to 1:10, and most preferably 2:1 to 1:2. 
         [0036]    In one embodiment of the process of the invention, component (A) may represent the “limiting” component; in other words, in the mixture comprising components (A) and (B), there are more aliphatically unsaturated groups of constituent (B) than SiH groups of constituent (A). 
         [0037]    In another embodiment of the process of the invention, component (B) may represent the “limiting” component; in other words, in the mixture comprising components (A) and (B), there are fewer aliphatically unsaturated groups of constituent (B) than SiH groups of constituent (A). 
         [0038]    In the process of the invention, components (A) and (B) are preferably used in amounts such that component (B) represents the deficit component. 
         [0039]    The reaction of compounds (A) which carry one or more H—Si functionalities, in accordance with the invention, takes place in one preferred embodiment with alkenes (B) which as well as carbon and hydrogen may additionally include chlorine, alkoxy, or amino functionalities. In that case, a further problem arises, additionally, that—as is known—the hydrosilylation reaction may be accompanied by the transfer of the chlorine, alkoxy, or amino functionalities to the hydrosilylation catalyst or to the compounds (A) used, and this restricts the achievable yield in the prior-art hydrosilylation process to such an extent that there have to date been no satisfactory technical solutions in particular for the reaction of such compositions. In view of the technical importance of these chloro-, alkoxy-, or amino-functionalized hydrosilylation products, the solution provided by the invention to this problem has significant economic potential. 
         [0040]    As constituent (C), which promotes the addition reaction (hydrosilylation) between the aliphatic carbon-carbon multiple bonds and Si-bonded hydrogen, metal-containing hydrosilylation catalysts which can be used in the materials of the invention are all of those known to date.

         [0046]    The amount of the catalyst (C) is guided by the desired reaction rate and also by economic considerations. In the process of the invention, catalysts (C) are used in amounts such as to result in a metal atom content of 1 to 500 mol-ppm (i.e. molar parts per million molar parts), preferably 1 to 200 mol-ppm, more preferably 1 to 70 mol-ppm, based in each case on the limiting component (A) or (B) used.

         [0071]    In the process of the invention, component (D) is preferably used in amounts of 0.1 to 5 mol %, more preferably 0.1 to 2 mol %, based in each case on the limiting component (A) or (B) used. 
         [0072]    In the process of the invention, components (C) and (D) are used in amounts such that the molar ratio of metal atom in component (C) to salt (D) is preferably 1:1 to 1:200, more preferably 1:1 to 1:25. 
         [0073]    In addition to components (A), (B), (C), (D), and optionally (E), further components may be used in the process of the invention, although this is not preferred. 
         [0074]    From the standpoint of the technical process, particularly in the case of a continuous operating regime, it may be of advantage to fill the plant with the desired target product even before the reaction of the invention is commenced, giving the target product the function of solvent as component (E). This is advantageous for managing the exothermic reaction, and has the advantage that, when the reaction mixture is worked up, no additional component detracts from the separation. In batchwise operation, the initial introduction of the target product likewise provides a possibility of managing the exothermic reaction when the reactants are metered; in order to optimize the space-time yield, however, not too much target product should be included in the initial charge. The fraction of target product included in the initial charge is preferably 5 to 50 wt %, more preferably 10 to 35 wt %, and most preferably 15 to 35 wt %, of the total mass at the start of the reaction. 
         [0075]    In the process of the invention, preferably, no substances other than components (A) to (E) are additionally used. 
         [0076]    The components used in the process of the invention may in each case comprise one kind of such a component or else a mixture of at least two kinds of a respective component. 
         [0077]    In the process of the invention, the individual components may be mixed with one another in any desired manner known per se. 
         [0078]    The process of the invention may be carried out either continuously or discontinuously; when using organosilicon compounds (A1), the continuous process is preferred, and when using polymeric organosilicon compounds (A2), the discontinuous process is preferred. 
         [0079]    The process of the invention takes place in a single-phase or multiphase system. Where it is a multiphase reaction, two-phase or three-phase reactions are preferred. In one preferred embodiment of the process of the invention, catalyst (C) is used as liquid phase, the heteroatomic organic salt (D) is used as liquid or solid phase, and the reactants (A) and (B) are used as liquid phase or gas phase. 
         [0080]    In the process of the invention, in the case of continuous operation, catalyst (C) is used in the form of a mixture with solvent (E) or with component (B1), in which, preferably, component (D) is suspended or dissolved, and this mixture is mixed with components (A) and (B), preferably using static mixers. 
         [0081]    In another variant of the continuous process of the invention, the hydrosilylation reaction takes place in a fixed-bed reactor, with the heteroatomic organic salt (D) being applied to a support material, preferably silica, aluminum oxide and/or glass, and the transition metal catalyst (C) is brought to reaction together with Si—H compounds (A1) and with component (B1) in a gas-phase or liquid-phase reaction. 
         [0082]    In the process of the invention, in the case of batchwise operation, component (D) is preferably included in the initial charge as a mixture with solvent (E). 
         [0083]    According to a preferred batchwise process variant, solvent (E), chloropropylmethyldichlorosilane for example, is charged to a reaction vessel, after which component (D) is added and the contents of the reaction vessel are thoroughly mixed. The resulting reaction mixture is then preferably heated, and in parallel metal catalyst (C), preferably as mixtures with solvent (E) or component (B1), and a mixture of components (A), methyldichlorosilane for example, and (B), allyl chloride for example is metered, preferably until the boiling point of the mixture is reached and reflux begins. The boiling temperature is determined by the nature of the reaction components (reactants). The hydrosilylation reaction which begins is generally manifested by an increase in the temperature in the reaction vessel, because this addition reaction is exothermic. The conversion of the reactants is monitored generally by regular sampling and analysis of the ingredients by GC. When there is no significant increase found in the amount of the desired reaction product in the reaction mixture, the removal of the low-boiling constituents of the reaction mixture, preferably by distillation, can be commenced, optionally under reduced pressure. This may be followed by fine distillation of the product, an operation frequently also conducted under reduced pressure. 
         [0084]    According to one preferred continuous process variant, component (A), component (B), a mixture of the metal catalyst (C), preferably in the form of a mixture with solvent (E) or component (B1), and component (D) are fed to the reactor concurrently at elevated temperature, preferably 30 to 110° C., preferably under slightly elevated pressure, more preferably 1000 to 10,000 hPa. When reaction is complete, the product can be subjected to fine distillation, for which it is possible to operate under reduced pressure. 
         [0085]    The process of the invention preferably is carried out at a temperature in the range from 10 to 200° C., more preferably in the range from 20 to 150° C., most preferably 30 to 110° C. Furthermore, the process of the invention is carried out at a pressure in the range from preferably 1000 to 200,000 hPa (abs.), more preferably at 1000 to 20,000 hPa (abs.), and most preferably at 1000 to 10,000 hPa (abs.). 
         [0086]    The process of the invention is preferably carried out under an inert gas atmosphere, such as under nitrogen or argon, for example. 
         [0087]    The process of the invention is carried out preferably in the absence of moisture. 
         [0088]    After the end of the reaction, the products are obtained directly, preferably with a purity of &gt;60 wt %. The purity of the distilled product is preferably &gt;98 wt %. 
         [0089]    The products produced in accordance with the invention can be used for all purposes for which organosilanes are useful. They may also be subjected to any desired form of further processing. For instance, where the products are chlorosilanes, the Si-bonded chlorine atoms can be esterified with an alcohol in a conventional way, to give alkoxysilanes. The alcohols used for the esterification of the invention are preferably methanol, ethanol, or 2-methoxyethanol. 
         [0090]    The process of the invention has the advantage that it is simple to implement and allows the preparation, in an economic way, of hydrosilylation products such as 3-chloropropylmethyldichlorosilane, for example, with outstanding yield. 
         [0091]    The process of the invention has the advantage, furthermore, that it has high selectivity and allows effective utilization of valuable Si—H components. 
         [0092]    Furthermore, the process of the invention has the advantage that only small amounts of component (D) need be used, with economic advantages on the one hand and, on the other, no disruptive influence on the isolation of product. 
         [0093]    Particularly surprising and of utmost economic significance, finally, is the fact that for the particularly preferred variants of the process of the invention, an increased selectivity to the desired product of the hydrosilylation reaction, with accompanying increased conversion, is observed. 
         [0094]    The process of the invention shows an unexpected technical solution which is based on the finding that the transition metal complexes catalyze hydrosilylation with addition of very small amounts of one or more organic salts which contain one or more heteroatoms, but surprisingly catalyze a hydrosilylation of Si—H compounds in a multiphase reaction regime, in a selective way, with a high yield. 
         [0095]    This was possible in the process of the invention through the addition of co-catalytic amounts of one or more organic salts containing one or more heteroatoms. The essential advantage relative to the known synthesis process lies in a significant improvement in selectivity and in yield during silane synthesis. Furthermore, in accordance with this invention, only very small, cocatalytic amounts of this organic salt are needed for a significant improvement in reaction outcomes. 
         [0096]    Another advantage of the present invention is that these organic salts can be used in the form of solids and hence after the end of reaction are easy to remove from the product mixture and recycle. 
         [0097]    The fact that this reaction is accomplished with the high selectivities achieved is accomplished was very surprising, since organic salts were employed only in the form of a solvent up to the present-day state of the art.

Unless indicated otherwise, the examples which follow are carried out under the pressure of the surrounding atmosphere, in other words approximately at 1000 hPa, and at room temperature, in other words at approximately 20° C., or at a temperature which comes about when the reactants are combined at room temperature without additional heating or cooling.
