Zusammenfassung:A process for converting a high-boiling fraction resulting from the reaction of methyl chloride with silicon metalloid in a process typically referred to as the "direct process" to monosilanes. The process comprises contacting a high-boiling fraction comprising polymeric silicon containing compound resulting from the reaction of methyl chloride with silicon metalloid, with hydrogen gas in the presence of an amount of lithium aluminum hydride catalyst effective in promoting conversion of the polymeric silicon containing compounds to monosilanes.
