Conclusions
-
1.
A mechanism of the disproportionation of trimethylbenzylsilane in the presence of aluminum chloride through intermediate four-center states was proposed and experimentally substantiated.
-
2.
It was proposed that the intermediate products of the reaction are organoaluminum compounds. The formation of side products of the reaction — trimethylchlorosilane and dimethylbenzylchlorosilane — is associated with their presence.
-
3.
The possibility of alkylation of halogen compounds by organylsilanes in the presence of aluminum chloride was discovered.
