Dimethyldichlorosilane is a tetrahedral organosilicon compound with the formula Si(CH 3) 2 Cl 2. At room temperature it is a colorless liquid that readily reacts with water to form both linear and cyclic Si-O chains. Dimethyldichlorosilane is made on an industrial scale as the principal precursor to dimethylsilicone and polysilane compounds.
A silanol is a functional group in silicon chemistry with the connectivity Si–O–H. It is related to the hydroxy functional group (C–O–H) found in all alcohols. Silanols are often invoked as intermediates in organosilicon chemistry and silicate mineralogy. [1] If a silanol contains one or more organic residues, it is an organosilanol.
Dimethyldichlorosilane (Si(CH 3) 2 Cl 2) is a key precursor to cyclic (D 3, D 4, etc.) and linear siloxanes. [5] The main route to siloxane functional group is by hydrolysis of silicon chlorides: 2 R 3 Si−Cl + H 2 O → R 3 Si−O−SiR 3 + 2 HCl. The reaction proceeds via the initial formation of silanols (R 3 Si−OH): R 3 Si−Cl + H 2 O ...
Si + Cl 2 → SiCl 2 SiCl 2 + Cl 2 → SiCl 4. Similar considerations apply to the direct process, the reaction of methyl chloride and bulk silicon. Early observations of silylenes involved generation of dimethylsilylene by dechlorination of dimethyldichlorosilane: [6] SiCl 2 (CH 3) 2 + 2 K → Si(CH 3) 2 + 2 KCl
The chemical formula of PDMS is CH 3 [Si(CH 3) 2 O] n Si(CH 3) 3, where n is the number of repeating monomer [Si(CH 3) 2 O] units. [4] Industrial synthesis can begin from dimethyldichlorosilane and water by the following net reaction: n Si(CH 3) 2 Cl 2 + (n+1) H 2 O → HO[Si(CH 3) 2 O] n H + 2n HCl. The polymerization reaction evolves ...

In inorganic chemistry, chlorosilanes are a group of reactive, chlorine-containing chemical compounds, related to silane (SiH 4) and used in many chemical processes. Each such chemical has at least one silicon-chlorine (Si−Cl) bond. Trichlorosilane is produced on the largest scale. The parent chlorosilane is silicon tetrachloride (SiCl 4). [1]
A trimethylsilyl group (abbreviated TMS) is a functional group in organic chemistry.This group consists of three methyl groups bonded to a silicon atom [−Si(CH 3) 3], which is in turn bonded to the rest of a molecule.
