Organochlorosilanes

chemical compound

Dimethyldichlorosilane is a tetrahedral organosilicon compound with the formula . At room temperature it is a colorless liquid that readily reacts with water to form both linear and cyclic Si-O chains. Dimethyldichlorosilane is made on an industrial scale as the principal precursor to dimethylsilicone and polysilane compounds.

Chlorodimethylsilane, also called dimethylchlorosilane and abbreviated DMCS, is a chemical compound with the formula (CH3)2SiHCl. It is a silane, with a silicon atom bonded to two methyl groups, a chlorine atom, and a hydrogen atom.

Methyltrichlorosilane, also known as trichloromethylsilane, is a monomer and organosilicon compound with the formula CH3SiCl3. It is a colorless liquid with a sharp odor similar to that of hydrochloric acid. As methyltrichlorosilane is a reactive compound, it is mainly used a precursor for forming various cross-linked siloxane polymers.

Octadecyltrichlorosilane (ODTS or '''n-octadecyltrichlorosilane''') is an organosilicon compound with the formula . A colorless liquid, it is used as a silanization agent to prepare hydrophobic stationary phase, for reversed-phase chromatography.
