Pt/C Catalyst for Hydrosilylation of Allyl Glycidyl Ether with Trimethoxysilane

Activated carbon-supported platinum was prepared and characterized by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), respectively. And the hydrosilylation of allyl glycidyl ether with trimethoxysilane catalyzed by platinum on activated carbon was discussed. The effects of reaction temperature, reaction time, feeding fashion and mixture ratio of precursors on the Pt/C catalytic this hydrosilylation were also investigated. The results showed that the reaction can generate the product of 3-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane at an efficiency of as high as 97.4% under the optimal conditions.
