General description
Chlorotrimethylsilane is a chloro-organosilane compound mainly used for silylation reactions.
Application
Possible usages of chlorotrimethylsilane:
It is also used in Fisher glycosylation.
- Chloromethylation of polysulfones (PSUs).
- Activation of lithium hydride to convert it into a hydride source for the reductive silylation of carbonyl compounds.
- Chlorotrimethylsilane/lithium bromide forms an effective reagent for the conversion of alcohols to bromides.
- Chlorotrimethylsilane is a non-toxic alternative to mercuric chloride in activating in samarium-promoted cyclopropanation of both allylic and α-allenic alcohols.
It is also used in Fisher glycosylation.
