“…When it comes to mechanism, a consensus has been generally reached that the bulk solid phase presented at reacting surface regions of Si is Cu 3 Si . It is also clear, however, that the composition of the surface phase of the alloy where catalysis occurs is probably not the same as that of the bulk . However, no further agreement or conclusion has been reached on the mechanism of the Cu 3 Si surface reactions and on the reasons for high selectivity of this process towards M2 .…”

The Rochow‐Müller process, an old process that has been known for more than seventy years, is for the direct synthesis of methylchlorosilane. However, due to its unique economic efficiency, it is still extremely important in silicone industry, e. g., about 90 % of starting materials for producing silicones are obtained by this route. Although significant progress has been made in exploring high‐efficient catalysts and understanding its mechanism, a quantitative description of this reaction is still far‐fetched due to its high complexity. In addition, sustainable use and recycling of by‐products and waste solid have become imperative nowadays due to the increasing demands for atom economy and environmental protection. This paper provides a comprehensive overview and insights into Rochow‐Müller process from its catalysis to sustainable issues, including the catalyst development and reaction mechanism investigation, waste reutilization and their derived products. In addition, several emerging novel processes originated from Rochow‐Müller process are summarized. Lastly, challenges and perspectives with respect to this reaction are discussed. We hope this work has accurately reflected and recorded the transition of Rochow‐Müller process to modern molecular catalysis, and can promote a much more sustainable silicone industry.

“…The isomers HSiCN 1 1, HSiNC 1 2, HCNSi 1 3, and cCHNSi 1 7 were generated and IR-characterized in the reaction of Si-atoms with HCN by Maier and co-workers [4]. The present calculations show that the most feasible conversion pathway between the four isomers is found as 1 1 M 1 2 M 1 7 M 1 3 with each barrier around or higher than 20 kcal/mol at the G3B3 level.…”

“…Recently, four new Si-species HSiCN 1 1, HSiNC 1 2, HCNSi 1 3 and cCHNSi 1 7 were generated and IR-characterized spectroscopically in the reaction of Si-atoms with HCN [4]. Later soon, the former two isomers HSiCN 1 1 and HSiNC 1 2 were detected in a laboratory discharge by molecular beam Fourier transform microwave spectroscopy [5].…”
