PENTAMETHYLDISILOXANE

Pentamethyldisiloxane is used in the synthesis of siloxane-polyether copolymer surfactants. It is also used as source of trimethylsilyl functional group in organic synthesis.

Pentamethyldisiloxane, is an organosilicon compound used in synthesis of siloxane-polyether copolymer surfactants. Pentamethyldisiloxane can also be used as source of the trimethylsilyl functional group in organic synthesis.

Take prepared potassium trimethylsilanolate 1.12kg in 2L of anhydrous tetrahydrofuran, was added dropwise with stirring dimethylchlorosilane1kg, dropwise, room temperature reaction 1h, filtered, concentrated, extracted with ether, dried and concentrated to give a high purity of 98% or more of pentamethyl disiloxane 1.2kg.
