Abstract

Abstract A process for the preparation of a partial or complete trichlorosilane ester of the formula H-Si(OR).sub.3-n Cl.sub.n wherein n is 0 or 1, R is an alkyl group of 1 to 11 carbon atoms, an alkyl group of 1 to 11 carbon atoms containing an oxygen atom in the chain, or an alkyl group of 1 to 11 carbon atoms containing a sulfur atom in the chain which comprises: 1. Forming a partial esterification product by contacting a trichlorosilane with up to a 10% stoichiometric excess of a primary alcohol, the stoichiometric amount corresponding to only partial esterification of said trichlorosilane, said contacting being conducted only in the liquid phase without any contact in the vapor phase; 2. Removing HCl formed from the reaction vessel; 3. Thereafter contacting the partial esterification product with additional primary alcohol and removing liberated residual HCl from the reaction vessel.
