The invention relates to a process for preparing N,N'-disubstituted p-quinonediimines of general formula I ##STR1## wherein a corresponding N,N'-disubstituted p-phenylenediamine is oxidized in alkaline/alcoholic solution, and also their use. The invention further provides organosilanes containing methacryloxy or acryloxy groups and having general formula II ##STR2## where R.sup.3 is a hydrogen atom or a methyl group and R.sup.4 and R.sup.5 are identical or different alkyl groups having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms and m is equal to 0 or 1 or 2, which organosilanes contain N,N'-disubstituted p-quinonediimines. Processes for preparing and stabilizing organosilanes of general formula II are described.

Process for preparing n, n'-disubstituted p-quinonediimines, their use

Process for preparing N,N'-disubstituted P-quinonediimines, their use

Pyridinium salts of the formula ##STR1## are prepared. The compounds are useful as phase transfer catalysts for the preparation of methacryloyloxyalkylalkoxysilanes and acryloyloxyalkylalkoxysilanes.

Pyridinium salts containing alkoxysilyl groups

A quaternary pyridinium halide is used as the phase transfer catalyst in a process for the preparation of an organosilane containing methacryloyloxy or acryloyloxy groups by reacting an alkali metal methacrylate or alkali metal acrylate with a chloroalkylsilane.

Process for the preparation of organosilanes containing methacryloyloxy

The present invention is in the preparation of methacrylic or acryloxyalkylalkoxysilanes by the reaction at a temperature of from 80.degree. and 130.degree. C. of an alkali (meth) acrylate with a halogen alkylalkoxysilane in the presence of a quaternary ammonium salt which has long-chin alkyl moieties, in which the sum of all carbon atoms is between 10 and 40 as a phase-transfer catalyst. In the new procedure no solvents need to be used. The yields are better than 95%.

Method for the preparation of organosilanes containing methacryloxy or

Organosilanes comprising methacryloxy groups or acryloxy groups are stabilized with a mixture consisting of at least one N,N'-di-substituted-p-phenylenediamine and at least one substituted phenol, which yields products with high purity and high yields.
