Hexachlorodisilane can be used in deoxygenation and desulfurization of phosphine oxides, phosphine
sulfides, and amine oxides; reducing agent for nitro groups
and sulfur diimides. | [Preparation]
Hexachlorodisilane is prepared in the chlorination of silicides such as e.g. calcium silicide. Idealized syntheses are as follows:
CaSi2 + 4 Cl2 → Si2Cl6 + CaCl2
| [Reactions]
Hexachlorodisilane is a versatile chemical reagent that can be used in the following chemical reactions[1-2]:
(1) When hexachlorodisilane is heated with a catalytic amount of triphenylphosphine or triphenylarsine, it decomposes according to the equation nSi2Cl6 = nSiCl4 + (SiCl2)n. It does not react with trifluoromethylphosphine. Hexabromodisilane is also decomposed by trimethylamine.
(2) Hexachlorodisilane reacts with hydrogen chloride in the presence of pyridine, and the reaction formula is:
Si2Cl6 + 2HCl = 2SiCl4 + H2.
(3) Excess hydrogen bromide and hexachlorodisilane produce a mixture of hydrogen chloride and hydrogen bromide.
(4) Hexachlorodisilane reacts with methyl chloride in the presence of triphenylphosphine to produce a mixture of methyltrichlorosilane and silicon tetrachloride. When hexachlorodisilane and methyl bromide are heated together in the presence of triphenylphosphine, a mixture of methyl chloride and bromine is produced.
(5) Hexachlorodisiloxane reacts with sulfur trioxide to produce silicon dioxide, sulfur dioxide and hexachlorodisiloxane. | [General Description]
Hexachlorodisilane (HCDS) is a chlorosilane used as a precursor for producing disilanes. It is a dioxidizer that is used in the production of silicon films and silicon nitride based films. | [Flammability and Explosibility]
Nonflammable | [Toxics Screening Level]
The ITSL for hexachlorodisilane has been changed from 0.04 μg/m3 to 0.1 μg/m3 based on annual averaging time. | [References]
