Hexamethylcyclotrisiloxane, also known as D3 and D3, is the organosilicon compound with the formula [(CH3)2SiO]3. It is a colorless or white volatile solid. It finds limited use in organic chemistry. The larger tetrameric and pentameric siloxanes, respectively octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane and decamethylcyclopentasiloxane, are of significant industrial interest,[1] whereas 1,000–10,000 tonnes per year of the trimer is manufactured and/or imported in the European Economic Area.[2]

Structure and reactions

Hexamethylcyclotrisiloxane adopts a planar structure and is considered strained.[3][4] It reacts with organolithium reagents to give, after hydrolysis, dimethylsilanols:

[(CH3)2SiO]3 + 3 RLi → 3 RSi(CH3)2OLi
RSi(CH3)2OLi + H2O → RSi(CH3)2OH + LiOH

Safety and environmental considerations

The LD50 for the related pentamer (D5) is >50 g/kg in rats.[1]
