Chlorosilanes with Si-H bonds can react with bases, releasing flammable H2 gas (Arkles, B. 2000. Silicon Compounds, Silanes. In Kirk-Othmer Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology. John Wiley & Sons, Inc. (Online)).
Vinyl trichlorosilane is incompatible with alkalis (Pohanish, Richard P. (2004). HazMat Data - For First Response, Transportation, Storage, and Security (2nd Edition). John Wiley & Sons).
