Method for distillation of organosilicon compounds that contain acryloxy or methacryloxy groups

1. A method for distillation of organosilicon compounds that contain acryloxy or methacryloxy groups characterized by subjecting an organosilicon compound (A) that contains acryloxy or methacryloxy groups to distillation in the presence of:

a polymerization inhibitor (B) of the following general formula (1):

or of the following general formula (2):

(where M is an atom selected from the group consisting of N, P, As, Sb, O, S, Se, Sn and I; R is a monovalent hydrocarbon group or a hydrogen atom; m is 1, 2 or 3; and X is a conjugated base of an organic acid or inorganic acid); and

a compound (C) with aliphatic conjugated unsaturated bonds.

2. The method of distillation according to claim 1 , wherein said component (B) is a polymerization inhibitor in which M of formula (1) is a nitrogen atom.

3. The method of distillation according to claim 1 , wherein said component (B) is represented by the following formula (3):

or by the following formula (4):

4. The method of distillation according to claim 1 , wherein said component (C) is selected from the group consisting of a conjugated linolic acid, dehydrated castor oil, tung oil, α-eleostearic acid, and cyclooctatetraene.

5. The method of distillation according to claim 1 , wherein said component (A) is 3-methacryloxypropyl-dimethylchlorosilane.

6. The method of distillation according to claim 1 , wherein distillation is caffied out in the presence of copper chloride.

7. The method of distillation according to claim 6 , wherein distillation is carried out in the presence of an antioxidant selected from the group consisting of a hindered phenol compound (with the exception of said component (B)), an amine-type compound, and a quinone-type compound.

8. The method of distillation according to claim 2 , wherein said component (C) is selected from the group consisting of a conjugated linolic acid, dehydrated castor oil, tung oil, α-eleostearic acid, and cyclooctatetraene.

9. The method of distillation according to claim 3 , wherein said component (C) is selected from the group consisting of a conjugated linolic acid, dehydrated castor oil, tung oil, α-eleostearic acid, and cyclooctatetraene.
