Abstract

When oganohalosilanes are prepared by charging a reactor with a contact mass containing a metallic silicon powder and a copper catalyst, and introducing an organohalide-containing gas into the reactor to effect the direct reaction, a metal complex of an organophosphino compound is added to the contact mass. The invention is successful in producing organohalosilanes at a significantly improved production rate without reducing the selectivity of useful silane.
