tert-Butyldimethylsilyl chloride (TBDMS-Cl) is a chemical reagent commonly used in organic synthesis, particularly for protecting hydroxyl groups during reactions. tert-Butyldimethylsilyl chloride (TBDMS-Cl) is an organosilicon compound known for its role as a protective agent in organic chemistry. It is highly reactive with water, leading to the release of corrosive hydrogen chloride gas, which is why it must be handled in a moisture-free environment, typically under inert gas.
