|  |  | Trimethylsilylacetylene Usage And Synthesis | 
 | Silican-protected group | Trimethylsilylacetylene is a silican-protected group, also known as trimethylethynylsilane, trimethylethynyl silicon and ethynyltrimethylsilane. It is a colorless transparent liquid at room temperature. It could be used to synthesize parazole by the addition of 1,3-bipolar ring of acetylene diazide. It is also the substrate of nickel catalyzed reaction and benzonitrile coupling reaction. |  | Application | 
Common intermediate for asymmetric synthesisSilica reagent |  | Chemical Properties | CLEAR COLORLESS LIQUID |  | Physical properties | bp 53 °C; d 0.695 g cm?3. |  | Uses | Ethynyltrimethylsilane was used in:
? microwave-assisted, one-pot, three-step Sonogashira cross-coupling-desilylation-cycloaddition reaction for the preparation of 1,4-disubstituted 1,2,3-triazoles
 synthesis of poly(ethynyltrimethylsilane) containing Pd (II) coordination sites
 pyrazole synthesis via 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of diazo compounds to acetylenes |  | Uses | Trimethylsilylacetylene is a valuable reagent used in ethynylation by palladium(0)-catalyzed coupling/condensation
with aryl and vinyl halides and triflates, or by nucleophilic attack
of the corresponding acetylide on electrophilic centers; reacts with alkyl iodides, tin hydrides,6 and dichloroketene in a
regioselective and stereoselective manner, participating in the following synthesis reactions: Ethynylations, Palladium(0)-Catalyzed Coupling Reactions,Reaction of Trimethylsilylacetylides with Electrophiles, Radical-Initiated and Transition Metal-Catalyzed Additions, Cycloaddition Reactions, Ethynylations, Cycloaddition Reactions, Further Transformations etc. |  | Uses | (Trimethylsilyl)acetylene is used in the preparation of trimethylsilanyl-propiolic acid ethyl ester by reacting with carbonochloridic acid ethyl ester as well as in the synthesis of iodoalkenes by radical addition of perfluoroalkyl iodides. It is used as a nucleophile in Friedel-Crafts type acylations and alkylations reactions, as a ligand in organometallic chemistry and an useful reagent in cycloaddition reactions. It acts as a precursor to lithium trimethylsilylacetylide It finds application in the synthesis of (±)-estrone. |  | General Description | Laser-induced polymerization of gaseous ethynyltrimethylsilane was used for efficient chemical vapour deposition of polycarbosilane films. Ethynyltrimethylsilane acts as substrate for nickel-catalyzed cross-coupling with benzonitriles. |  | Purification Methods | Distil it through an efficient column. The IR has bands at max 2041 (CC) and 3289 (C-H) cm-1. [Kr.hnke & Goss Chem Ber 92 30 1959, Beilstein 4 IV 3937.] |
