organosilicon compounds

About 1 million tons of organosilicon compounds are prepared annually by this route.

The catalytic transformation represents an important method for preparing organosilicon compounds.

Organosilicon compounds are widely encountered in commercial products.

Copper silicides are invoked in the Direct process, the industrial route to organosilicon compounds.

Although proportionately a minor outlet, organosilicon compounds are widely used in organic synthesis.

Oxidation of organosilicon compounds, including siloxanes, gives silicon dioxide.

In most organosilicon compounds, Si is tetravalent and tetrahedral.

Metal silyl complexes are important intermediates in hydrosilation, a process used to make organosilicon compounds.

Due to the stability of the silicon group, organosilicon compounds are useful in the total synthesis of complex natural products and pharmaceutical drugs.

Organosilicon compounds are organic compounds containing carbon-silicon bonds.

Most organosilicon compounds are similar to the ordinary organic compounds, being colourless, flammable, hydrophobic, and stable.

Although silenes is mainly of theoretical interest, substituted silenes are well known class of organosilicon compounds.

Organosilicon compounds, unlike their carbon counterparts, do not have a rich double bond chemistry due to the double bond rule.

Divalent organotin compounds are uncommon, although more common than related divalent organogermanium and organosilicon compounds.

The bulk of organosilicon compounds derive from organosilicon chlorides (CH)SiCl.

Compounds of carbon with other group 14 elements: organosilicon compounds, organogermanium compounds, organotin compounds, organolead compounds.

These reactions produce derivatives that are more similar to organosilicon compounds, i.e. that Pb(II) tends to disproportionate upon alkylation.

The first organosilicon compounds were reported in 1863 by Charles Friedel and James Crafts who synthesized tetraethylsilane from diethylzinc and silicon tetrachloride.

The Direct process, by which most organosilicon compounds are produced industrially, generates a non-volatile residue that consists of significant amounts of disilanes, e.g., CHSiHCl.

Germanium shares group 14 in the periodic table with silicon, tin and lead and not surprisingly the chemistry of organogermanium is in between that of organosilicon compounds and organotin compounds.

Ladenburg visited England, and then went on to work for 18 months in Paris with Charles-Adolphe Wurtz and Charles Friedel on organosilicon compounds and tin compounds.

In 1951 he won a Rotary Foundation Fellowship, which allowed him to spend a year working at the University of California, Los Angeles with Saul Winstein and his research group, and in 1960 published the seminal Organosilicon Compounds.

In the same year, Tamao and group published another paper that showed that the carbon-silicon bond in alkoxy organosilicon compounds can be cleaved using HO or m-CPBA under acidic, basic (chemistry), or neutral conditions, to afford the corresponding alcohols.

Compared to the inherent issues of well-used organometalics reagents, such as organomagnesium (Grignard Reagents) and organocopper reagents, which are very reactive and are known to have low chemoselectivity, enough to destroy functional groups on both coupling partners, organosilicon compounds are inactive.
