Hexamethyldisilane, also known as Hexamethyldisilane in English, is a colorless and transparent liquid at room temperature and pressure. It is insoluble in water and soluble in alcohol organic solvents and acetone. Hexamethyldisilane is a silane type organic compound commonly used as a silane protector in organic synthetic chemistry. It can be used in the preparation of drug molecules and bioactive molecules, and has a wide range of applications in basic chemical research. In addition, hexamethyldisilane is also a terminating agent for the polysilane chain and has certain applications in the preparation of polymer materials.
application
In the process of drug molecule synthesis, hexamethyldisilane can be used for the synthesis of antibiotics such as ceftazidime. ceftazidime is a semi synthetic third-generation cephalosporin, similar to other third-generation cephalosporins, and has a wide range of reactions against Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria. The difference is that it can effectively combat Pseudomonas aeruginosa, but its resistance to Gram positive bacteria is weak, so it will not be used for this infection.
