Description

[(11-Iodoundecyl)Oxy]Trimethylsilane is a specialized organosilicon compound featuring a long alkyl chain terminated with an iodine atom and a trimethylsilyl ether group. This unique bifunctional structure makes it a valuable intermediate for surface modification, polymer synthesis, and the creation of functional materials. It is particularly sought after by researchers and manufacturers in the fields of advanced materials science, nanotechnology, and specialty chemical synthesis.

Application

• Surface Modification Agent: Used to functionalize inorganic surfaces (e.g., silica, glass, metals) with long alkyl chains for hydrophobicity or as a linker for further chemical attachment.
• Polymer & Dendrimer Synthesis: Serves as a key monomer or building block in the preparation of functional polymers, dendrimers, and star-shaped macromolecules via controlled polymerization techniques.
• Liquid Crystal & Self-Assembled Monolayer (SAM) Precursor: The iodine and silyl ether termini allow for versatile chemical transformations, making it suitable for synthesizing mesogenic compounds and forming ordered monolayers on substrates.
• Organic Synthesis Intermediate: The reactive iodine handle enables further cross-coupling reactions (e.g., Suzuki, Heck), while the silyl ether can be deprotected, offering flexibility in synthetic pathways.
• Nanomaterial Functionalization: Employed to coat nanoparticles (quantum dots, gold nanoparticles) to improve dispersibility in organic solvents or to introduce specific chemical functionalities.

Quality Control

Our [(11-Iodoundecyl)Oxy]Trimethylsilane is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including chromatography (GC/HPLC) and spectroscopic methods (NMR, IR), to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, confirming compliance with agreed specifications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its light-sensitive nature and the presence of an iodine-carbon bond, prolonged exposure to light or heat should be avoided to maintain product integrity.
