CH3CH2OSiH3
(CH3CH2)OSiH3, also known as ethoxysilane or ethylsilane, is an organosilicon compound. It has the chemical formula C2H7OSi. The molecule consists of an ethyl group (CH3CH2-) attached to an oxygen atom, which is in turn bonded to a silicon atom that is bonded to three hydrogen atoms (SiH3-). This structure can be viewed as a derivative of silane where one hydrogen atom has been replaced by an ethoxy group.
Ethoxysilane is a colorless liquid at room temperature. Its physical properties, such as boiling point and
In terms of applications, ethoxysilane can serve as a precursor in the synthesis of other silicon-containing
