Abstract
1,2-Dihydroxy-tetramethyldisilane (2) has been synthesized by hydrolysis of 1,2-dichloro-tetramethyldisilane (1) and characterized by IR, NMR, MS and X-ray structure analysis. Compound 2 exists in crystal form in two differen t conformations forming a characteristic two-dimensional network by H-bondi ng. The title compound is water soluble and has a high condensation tendenc y. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science S.A. All rights reserved.
