Methylphenylsilane, with the CAS number 766-08-5, is an organosilicon compound characterized by the presence of both methyl and phenyl groups attached to a silicon atom. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid and is known for its low viscosity and moderate volatility. Methylphenylsilane exhibits unique chemical properties due to the combination of its silicon atom and organic groups, making it useful in various applications, including as a precursor in the synthesis of silicone polymers and as an intermediate in organic synthesis. It is also valued in the field of materials science for its potential to enhance the mechanical and thermal properties of composite materials. The compound is generally stable under standard conditions but may react with strong oxidizing agents. Safety precautions should be taken when handling methylphenylsilane, as it can be irritating to the skin and eyes, and proper ventilation is recommended to avoid inhalation of vapors.

Methylphenylsilane is a colorless liquid with a boiling point of 156.5°C and a melting point of -107.8°C. It is soluble in ethyl acetate, diethylether and dichloromethane. Methylphenylsilane has been used as a catalyst in the trimerization of amines under high pressure and temperature conditions to produce alkyl methacrylate esters. Methylphenylsilane has also been used as a solid catalyst for cationic polymerization of silicon-containing monomers in water vapor at temperatures between 100°C and 200°C.
