Halogen Derivatives of Alkyl(or aryl)halogenosilanes and Tetrasubstituted Silanes

In recent years there have been many investigations in the field of organosilicon compounds containing halogen-substituted organic groups. These investigations offer prospects of the use of these compounds in the synthesis of polyorganosiloxanes. The extensive data on methods of synthesis of halogen derivatives of alkyl(or aryl)halogenosilanes and tetrasubstituted silanes, their properties, and use are scattered in many periodicals. Monographs and review articles have so far examined only isolated aspects of the chemistry of organosilicon compounds. This has stimulated us to survey the accumulated experimental results, the analysis of which even now allows definite regularities to be found in the occurrence of certain reactions and processes in the synthesis and conversions of halogen derivatives of organosilicon compounds. There is a bibliography of 677 references.
