Summary
-
1.
In a study of the reactions of 1,1,1-triethylsilylamine and its N-alkyl derivatives (including the new compounds 1,1,1-triethyl-N-methylsilylamine and 1,1,1-triethyl-N,N-dimethylsilylamine) it was shown that treatment of these compounds with water causes the amino group to be replaced by hydroxyl and treatment with alcohols brings about replacement by alkoxyl.
-
2.
The reaction of silylamines with aliphatic alcohols was applied in the synthesis of new compounds, namely alkoxytriethylsilanes (C2H5)3SiOR (R = propyl, isopropyl, butyl, isobutyl, isopentyl, and octyl).
-
3.
It was shown that silylamines are of fairly good thermal stability and are not decomposed by long boiling.
