alkoxysilyl
An alkoxysilyl group is a functional group in organic chemistry characterized by a silicon atom bonded to at least one alkoxy group (R-O-) and at least one carbon atom. The general formula for an alkoxysilyl group can be represented as R3Si-OR', where R and R' are organic substituents. More specifically, silicon can be bonded to varying numbers of alkoxy groups and other substituents, such as alkyl or aryl groups. Common examples include methoxysilyl (CH3OSi-) and ethoxysilyl (C2H5OSi-) groups.
These groups are important intermediates in organic synthesis and are widely used in the production of silicones,
Alkoxysilyl compounds find applications as coupling agents, crosslinkers, and surface modifiers in various industries, including coatings,
