Heptamethyltrisiloxane is used to catalyze reduction reactions in organic syntheses.
Bis (trimethylsiloxy) methylsilane acts as an important raw material
and intermediate used in organic synthesis, pharmaceutical and
dyestuff. For example, it can be used for the platinum-catalyzed
aromatic C-H silylation of arenes. It can also be used for the
silylation of aryl iodides.
1,1,1,3,5,5,5-Heptamethyltrisiloxane can be used for the aromatic C-H silylation of arenes in the presence of a platinum complex catalyst.
It can also be used as a reagent to synthesize:
- 3-Octyl-1,1,1,3,5,5,5-heptamethyltrisiloxane, an agricultural adjuvant and sensory performance enhancer used in cosmetic formulations.
- Isoindigo-based conjugated polymer with siloxane-terminated solubilizing group.
- Monosiloxy esters with a variety of acids.
Bis(trimethylsiloxy)methylsilane is an important raw material and intermediate used in organic synthesis, pharmaceutical and dyestuff.
1,1,1,3,5,5,5-Heptamethyltrisiloxane is a Basic material for synthetic polyalkyleneoxide modified heptamethyltrisiloxane which is a kind of specific structure surfactant for pesticide additives, coating additives, etc.
