Quantity


It is soluble in organic solvents but insoluble in water.
Iodotrimethylsilane has a high boiling point and flash point and is easy to volatilize.
Iodotrimethylsilane is used for the introduction of trimethylsilyl group in organic synthesis.
It is also useful for gas chromatography analysis by converting alcohol into a silyl ether derivative,
thereby making it more volatile than the original molecule.
