Octadecyltrichlorosilane

Octadecyltrichlorosilane (ODTS or n-octadecyltrichlorosilane) is an organosilicon chemical. It is used in semiconductor industry to form self-assembled monolayer thin films on silicon dioxide substrates. Its structural chemical formula is CH3(CH2)17SiCl3. It is flammable, reacts with water, and is also sensitive to air. It is corrosive and can severely damage mucous membranes. Its EINECS number is 203-930-7. ODTS finds its use in molecular electronics, as thin insulating gates in . , an ODTS analog with shorter alkyl chain, is used for the same purpose as well.
