Abstract

(Chloromethyl)silanes ClCH₂SiMe_n(OMe)_3-n (n = 0—2) react with methylamine at room temperature to give a mixture of secondary N-methyl-N-(silylmethyl)amines MeNHCH₂SiMe_n(OMe)_3-n and tertiary N-methy1-N, N-bis(silylmethyl)amines MeN[CH₂SiMe_n(OMe)_3-n]₂ (n = 0—2). The product ratio depends on the ratio of the starting reactants. At the methylamine : silane ratio of 5 : 1, the main products are tertiary amines, while the increase in the proportion of methylamine (methylamine : silane = 25 : 1) leads to predomination of the secondary amines.
