CAS 18035-33-1: 6-Phenylhexyltrichlorosilane

Trichloro(6-phenylhexyl)silane is a silicon-based molecule that has the potential to be used in semiconducting devices. The molecule consists of three chlorine atoms and six phenyl groups, which are connected by hydrogen bonds. Trichloro(6-phenylhexyl)silane can be synthesized by reacting hexamethyldisilazane with carbon tetrachloride and then reacting the resulting product with hexachlorodisilane. The molecule is a multilayer that exhibits two different phases. In one phase, the molecules are close together and form monolayers on a surface. In the other phase, the molecules are further apart and form bilayers on a surface. Multilayer structures such as this have been shown to have high kinetic energy, while also being able to exhibit morphology and device properties that are dependent on temperatures.
