The present invention relates to a process for the production of perhalogenated hexasilane anion by reacting halogenated monosilane in the presence of organosubstituted ammonium and/or phosphonium halide at temperatures in a range from 100 to 120° C., wherein no solvent is used, and a process for the production of a cyclic silane compound of the formula Si 6 R 12 , by reacting [X] 2 [Si 6 Cl 14 ] with AlR 3 in at least one organic solvent, wherein R is chlorine or methyl and X, the same or different, is a counter-cation and is preferably selected from organosubstituted ammonium, organosubstituted phosphonium, alkali metal ions and [(PEDETA)(H 2 SiCl)]+. |
