Abstract
Abstract A process for the preparation of aminopropylalkoxysilanes comprising the hydrosilation of allylamines (including N-substituted allylamines) with alkoxyhydrosilanes in the presence of a rhodium-triorganophosphorus-complex catalyst. This process significantly increases the gamma- to beta-isomer ratio of the final product of the addition of allylamines to alkoxyhydrosilanes.
