Hexamethyldisilane Application:
1. Hexamethyldisilane is an important silane protective agent, which can synthesize sodium trimethylsilane, potassium trimethylsilane and lithium trimethylsilane.
2. Preparation of iodotrimethylsilane.
3. Used as trimethylsilane anion reagent.
4. Silylating or reducing reagent in combination with a Pd catalyst or a nucleophile.
5. Replaces aromatic nitriles with TMS groups in presence of [RhCl(cod)]2.
6. Precursor for CVD of silicon carbide.
7. Brings about the homocoupling of arenesulfonyl chlorides in the presence of Pd2(dba)3.
8. Used as a solvent for the direct borylation of fluoroaromatics.
9. Reacts with alkynes to form siloles.
10. Undergoes the silylation of acid chlorides to give acylsilanes.
