Description

Bis(4-Methoxyphenyl)-1,1,2,2-Tetramethyldisilane, 97% is a high-purity organosilicon compound featuring a central disilane core symmetrically substituted with methoxyphenyl groups. This specific molecular architecture makes it a valuable synthetic intermediate and building block in advanced materials chemistry, particularly for applications requiring precise control over molecular structure and properties. It is primarily utilized by R&D chemists and process engineers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and specialty polymer industries for the development of novel silicon-containing compounds.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Serves as a key precursor in the synthesis of novel drug candidates, especially those incorporating silicon to modulate bioavailability and metabolic stability.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used as a building block for creating advanced silicon-based pesticides, herbicides, and plant growth regulators with enhanced efficacy.
• Material Science Research: Acts as a monomer or cross-linking agent in the development of specialty silicones, siloxane polymers, and hybrid organic-inorganic materials (OIMs).
• Liquid Crystal & OLED Materials: Employed in the synthesis of silicon-containing components for liquid crystal displays (LCDs) and organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) to improve thermal and electronic properties.
• Surface Modification Agent: Utilized to functionalize silica surfaces or other inorganic materials, altering their hydrophobicity, adhesion, or compatibility with organic matrices.
• Cross-Coupling Reactions: Functions as a reagent in palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions (e.g., Hiyama coupling) to form new carbon-carbon or carbon-silicon bonds.

Quality Control

Our Bis(4-Methoxyphenyl)-1,1,2,2-Tetramethyldisilane is manufactured under strict quality management protocols. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC, GC, and NMR, to ensure the specified 97% minimum purity and identity are met. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, impurities, and physical characteristics is provided with each shipment to guarantee traceability and compliance with your research or production requirements.

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 hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) after opening to prevent degradation.
