4-Methoxyphenyl dimethylvinyl silane(CAS: 55153-99-6)

4-Methoxyphenyl dimethylvinyl silane (CAS: 55153-99-6) is a colorless, viscous liquid with a molecular weight of approximately 218.31 g/mol. It has a moderate solubility in common organic solvents like toluene and poor solubility in water. Chemically, it is characterized by its reactivity towards nucleophiles and its stability under normal storage conditions.

4-Methoxyphenyl dimethylvinyl silane is often synthesized via a Grignard reaction where vinyl magnesium bromide is reacted with 4-methoxyphenyl methyl silane. The reaction is catalyzed by magnesium and typically carried out in an anhydrous ether solvent. The yield is generally high, and the product is isolated by distillation.

4-Methoxyphenyl dimethylvinyl silane (CAS: 55153-99-6) is used in the pharmaceutical industry for the synthesis of certain pharmaceutical compounds, in semiconductor manufacturing for its use as a masking agent, and in the production of polymers and sensors due to its reactive nature and stability.

When handling 4-Methoxyphenyl dimethylvinyl silane (CAS: 55153-99-6), safety goggles, gloves, and protective clothing should be worn. It should be stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Fume hoods should be used during handling to prevent inhalation. In case of spill, the area should be cleaned up immediately, and the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) should be referenced for further guidance.
