| Triphenylsilane Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | Triphenylsilane is Off-white solid
| | Physical properties | mp 47 °C; bp 152 °C/2 mmHg. | | Uses | Triphenylsilane acts as a reactant or reagent for catalytic hydrogen deuterium exchange reactions of silanes, to be oxidized by carbon nanotube-gold nanohybrids, for hydrolysis by ruthenium complexes, for hydrosilylation to produce enolsilanes, for synthesis of bromosilanes, for ozone oxidation of silyl-alkenes for synthesis of α-O-silylated acyloin derivatives. It is used to synthesize hydrido silyl and bis(silyl) bis(imidazolinylidene) nickel complexes. | | Uses | Reactant or reagent:• ;For catalytic hydrogen deuterium exchange reactions of silanes1• ;To be oxidized by carbon nanotube-gold nanohybrids2• ;For hydrolysis by ruthenium complexes3• ;For hydrosilylation to produce enolsilanes4• ;For synthesis of bromosilanes5• ;For ozone oxidation of silyl-alkenes for synthesis of α-O-silylated acyloin derivatives6• ;Used to synthesize hydrido silyl and bis(silyl) bis(imidazolinylidene) nickel complexes7 | | Uses | Triphenylsilane is reducing agent for esters, xanthates, and polychloroalkanes;
protecting group for alcohols. It takes part in the reactions of Deoxygenations, Hydrosilylations, Lewis Acid-assisted Hydrosilylations, Heteroatom Reductions, Multiple Bond Reductions, Alkene Hydrogenations, Silylations, etc. | | Application | More effective radical-based reagent for reduction of
organic halides than the trialkylsilanes. Compares
well with tri-n-butyltin hydride in reduction of enones to
ketones. Shows good selectivity in the reduction of cyclic
hemiacetals. Converts O-acetyl furanoses and pyranoses
to deoxy sugars. | | Purification Methods | Purify it by recrystallisation from MeOH. [Gilman & Zuech J Am Chem Soc 81 5925 1959, Westermark Acta Chem Scand 9 947 1955, IR: Kaplan J Am Chem Soc 76 5880 1954, Beilstein 16 II 605, 16 III 1199, 16 IV 1369.] |
