ABSTRACT:
Ethyl orthosilicate is produced by contacting silicon metal with a mixture of methanol and ethanol in the presence of a catalytic amount of an alkali metal carbonate or bicarbonate at a temperature of at least 130.degree. C. The methyl orthosilicates produced are converted to ethyl orthosilicate by transesterification with ethanol.
