Place the flask in an ice bath and stir slowly to make full contact with the raw materials. Then gradually heat up to a suitable temperature, usually between 60 and 80 degrees Celsius, and continue to stir the reaction. In this process, the acid binding agent can be combined with the hydrogen bromide generated by the reaction, which prompts the reaction to proceed in the direction of generating N-cetyltriethoxysilane. After the reaction is completed, wait for the system to cool down and filter to remove the generated salt. The filtrate is removed by a rotary evaporator to remove the solvent, and the crude product can be obtained.
