The organosilicon compound of this invention can be synthesized by reacting an organosilicon compound represented by the general formula (II):
wherein R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are as defined above;
with a compound represented by the general formula (III): ##STR3## wherein R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 are as defined above; in the presence of a catalyst. Useful as the catalyst in this reaction are, for example, organic tin compounds such as dibutyltin maleate, tributyltin acetate, dimethyltin dichloride, dibutyltin diacetate and dibutyltin dilaurate; and tertiary amines such as N-methylmorpholine, triethylamine, N-methylpiperidine, N,N-dimethylcyclohexylamine and pyridine, and they may preferably be added in an amount of from 0.001 to 1% by weight, particularly from 0.01 to 0.1% by weight, based on the organosilicon compound of the general formula (II). The reaction may preferably be carried out at a temperature of from 0.degree. to 50.degree. C., particularly from 20.degree. to 40.degree. C. The above reaction may usually be carried out without any solvent, but may be carried out using an organic solvent as exemplified by hexane, cyclohexane, benzene, toluene, xylene, tetrahydrofuran and acetonitrile, as required.
The thus obtainable organosilicon compound represented by the general formula (I) is useful as an improver for improving the adhesive properties of ultraviolet-curable silicone resins to substrates. For example, it may be added in the ultraviolet-curable silicone resin in an amount of from 0.01 to 1.0% by weight, whereby, after curing, the adhesion of the resin to substrates such as glass can be markedly improved.
This invention will be described below in greater detail by way of Examples.
