Tetrasilane is a silane with the structure formula SiH3–(SiH2)2–SiH3. It is the silane analog of butane.
Preparation
[edit]Tetrasilane can be prepared by reacting magnesium silicide (Mg2Si) with acids like 20% phosphoric acid in 50–60 °C.[3]
The reaction can produce silanes up to n=15. The reaction of magnesium silicide with 25% hydrochloric acid produces 40% monosilane, 30% disilane, 15% trisilane, 10% tetrasilane and 5% higher silanes.[4] The mixture can be separated by fractional distillation.
In addition, higher silanes can also be obtained by discharges monosilane:[3]
Properties
[edit]Tetrasilane is a colourless, pyrophoric liquid that has a disgusting odour. Even below 54 °C, it will still spontaneous combust.[1] It is even more unstable than trisilane, slowly decomposing at room temperature, releasing hydrogen and forming shorter chain silanes.[5]
Reactions
[edit]Photochemical disproportionation of tetrasilane will produce 3-silylpentasilane and disilane.[6]
With the presence of aluminium chloride, heating tetrasilane in xylene will allow isomerization to isotetrasilane.[7]
