Tetra-p-tolylsilane, with the CAS number 10256-83-4, is an organosilicon compound characterized by its unique structure, which features a silicon atom bonded to four p-tolyl (para-methylphenyl) groups. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its form and purity. It is known for its low volatility and stability, making it useful in various chemical applications, including as a precursor in the synthesis of siloxane polymers and as a reagent in organic synthesis. Tetra-p-tolylsilane exhibits hydrophobic properties due to the presence of the bulky aromatic groups, which can influence its solubility in organic solvents. Additionally, it may participate in cross-coupling reactions and can serve as a protective group in organic synthesis. Safety data indicates that, like many organosilicon compounds, it should be handled with care, as it may cause irritation upon contact with skin or eyes. Proper storage and handling protocols are essential to ensure safety and maintain its integrity for use in laboratory settings.

Tetrakis(p-tolyl)silane is a silicon-containing compound that turns yellow when heated. It has a high melting point and is thermally stable. Tetrakis(p-tolyl)silane has been shown to be luminescent, fluorescence, and nitrate-sensitive. The interaction of this molecule with aldehydes also depends on the type of silicon atom it is bonded to. For example, if the silicon atom is bonded to an oxygen atom, then the aldehyde will react with the oxygen atom instead of the silicon atom. Tetrakis(p-tolyl)silane is also soluble in chloroform or dichloromethane and insoluble in water. Finally, tetraphenylmethane can be used as an analogue for tetrakis(p-tolyl)silane.
