3-Chloropropyltrichlorosilane

3-Chloropropyltrichlorosilane is an organosilicon compound with the chemical formula Cl(CH₂)₃SiCl₃ and CAS number 2550-06-3. It appears as a clear liquid ranging from colorless to pale yellow. It is primarily used in the synthesis of silane coupling agents such as KH-550 and Si69, as well as organic silicon intermediates and high-molecular-weight polymers. It is typically prepared by the reaction of trichlorosilane with allyl chloride in the presence of a platinum catalyst.
