Separation of organochlorsilanes by preparative gas chromatography

Abstract

The preparative gas chromatography method has been used for isolation and analysis of the organochlorsilanes isomers. The reaction of the organochlorsilanes with vapour of the water in the air has been studied. The method for isolation of the organochlorsilanes is proposed. It is based on using chromatographic column with efficiency up to 10000 theoretical plates. A high degree of purity (up to 99%) of the isolated compounds is achieved by an increase of separation selectivity, which is turned results from a temperature decrease. The effect of the parameters of chromatographic experiment (the column length, impregnation degree, the rate of gas-carrier) on the isolation of the compounds boiling up to 400o C was investigated.
