Trimethylsilane, with the CAS number 993-07-7, is an organosilicon compound characterized by its three methyl groups attached to a silicon atom. It is a colorless, flammable gas or liquid at room temperature, depending on the pressure. Trimethylsilane is known for its low viscosity and volatility, making it useful as a reagent in organic synthesis and as a protective group in various chemical reactions. Its chemical formula is Si(CH₃)₃, and it exhibits properties typical of silanes, such as reactivity with water to produce silanol and methane. The compound is also utilized in the production of silicone polymers and as a precursor in the synthesis of other organosilicon compounds. Due to its structure, trimethylsilane can act as a reducing agent and is often employed in hydrosilylation reactions. Safety precautions are necessary when handling this substance, as it can pose fire hazards and should be stored in a cool, well-ventilated area away from oxidizing agents.
