Heptamethyldisilanamine - Introduction

heptamethyldisilanamine, also known as heptamethyldilanamine, chemical formula [(CH3)3Si]2NH, its molecular formula is C8H23N2Si2.

Properties: heptamethyldisilanamine is a colorless to light yellow liquid with a pungent odor. It has a high vapor pressure and a low melting point, soluble in some organic solvents, such as ethanol, ether and alkane. The compound has a strong basic, and can react with acid to form the corresponding salt. It has high stability and is sometimes used as a reagent or intermediate.

Purpose: heptamethyldisilanamine has multiple application areas. First, it can be used as a catalyst to catalyze the reaction between the silane and the diene body. Second, it is used in organic synthesis as a nitrogen source, which can be introduced into target molecules. In addition, due to its alkalinity, heptamethyldisilanamine can also be used as a metal surface treatment agent or surfactant.

Preparation method: The preparation method of heptamethyldisilanamine can be obtained by the reaction of methyl chlorosilane and chlorosilane. First, methylchlorosilane reacts with chlorosilane under alkaline conditions to produce a more stable intermediate, and then the final product is obtained by the reaction of the intermediate with ammonia.

Safety Information: The use of heptamethyldisilanamine should be carried out with appropriate safety measures, such as wearing protective gloves, safety glasses and protective masks to prevent contact with skin, eyes and respiratory tract. Avoid inhaling its vapors. During use, stay in a well-ventilated area. In case of contact with skin or eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water. If eaten by mistake, seek medical attention immediately.
