Silane, (chloromethoxy)(1,1-dimethylethyl)dimethyl-

Description:

Silane, (chloromethoxy)(1,1-dimethylethyl)dimethyl- is an organosilicon compound characterized by the presence of silicon, chlorine, and organic functional groups. This compound features a silane backbone, which is a silicon atom bonded to various groups, including chloromethoxy and dimethyl groups. The presence of the chloromethoxy group indicates that it has a methoxy functional group (–OCH3) attached to a chlorine atom, which can influence its reactivity and solubility. The 1,1-dimethylethyl group, also known as a tert-butyl group, contributes to the steric bulk of the molecule, potentially affecting its interactions with other substances. Silanes like this one are often used in various applications, including as coupling agents, surface modifiers, and precursors in the synthesis of silicon-containing materials. The compound's properties, such as volatility, reactivity, and stability, can vary based on its molecular structure and the presence of functional groups, making it useful in both industrial and research settings. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage due to the presence of chlorine and other reactive components.
