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]
Methyltrichlorosilane, also known as trichloromethylsilane, is a monomer and organosilicon compound with the formula CH 3 SiCl 3. It is a colorless liquid with a sharp odor similar to that of hydrochloric acid. As methyltrichlorosilane is a reactive compound, it is mainly used a precursor for forming various cross-linked siloxane polymers.
tert-Butyldimethylsilyl chloride is an organosilicon compound with the formula (Me 3 C)Me 2 SiCl (Me = CH 3). It is commonly abbreviated as TBSCl or TBDMSCl. It is a chlorosilane containing two methyl groups and a tert-butyl group. As such it is more bulky that trimethylsilyl chloride. It is a colorless or white solid that is soluble in many ...
TMSCl is reactive toward nucleophiles, resulting in the replacement of the chloride. In a characteristic reaction of TMSCl, the nucleophile is water, resulting in hydrolysis to give the hexamethyldisiloxane: + + The related reaction of trimethylsilyl chloride with alcohols can be exploited to produce anhydrous solutions of hydrochloric acid in alcohols, which find use in the mild synthesis of ...
For inorganic silicon-hydrogen-chlorine compounds with the general formula Si n H 2n+2-x Cl x, see Category:Chlorosilanes. This category is for organic derivatives of chlorosilanes, where one or more hydrogens have (formally) been replaced by organic groups.
Methylsilane is the organosilicon compound with the formula CH 3 SiH 3. It is a colorless gas that ignites in air. It can be prepared by reduction of methyltrichlorosilane with lithium aluminium hydride. [2] It has been investigated as a precursor to silicon carbide. [3] Methylsilane has been the subject of extensive theoretical analysis. [4]
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 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.
