A composition, comprising: trisilylamine and less than 5 ppmw of halogen. A method of making a silylamine comprising combining ammonia and a compound comprising aminosilane functionality, where the compound comprising aminosilane functionality is according to formula (I) R1 N(R2)a(SiH3)2−a (I), where R1 is an organic polymer, a C-1-20 hydrocarbyl group or —SiR331, where R3 is C1-6 hydrocarbyl, R2 is a C-1-20 hydrocarbyl group, H, or —SiR331, where R3 is as defined above, subscript a is 0 or 1, provided that R1 and R2 may be the same or different except if R1 is phenyl, R2 is not phenyl, under sufficient conditions to cause a reaction to form a silylamine and a byproduct.
