Abstract
The interaction of diethylzinc with Aerosil has been examined by IR sp ectroscopy and mass spectrometry. The reaction involves both free hydr oxyl groups and siloxane groups of the surface resulting in the format ion of =Si-O-Zn-Et and =Si-Et fragments. At temperatures above 300 deg rees C, these structures undergo decomposition with the recovery of =S i-OH groups on the Aerosil surface and liberation of metallic zinc.
