Other Experimental
Decomposes in water;Fumes strongly in moist air.;The reaction of organosilanes with halogens and halogen compounds usually proceeds in good yield through cleavage of the Si--H bond and formation of the silicon-halogen bond. Reaction with fluorine, however, does not proceed satisfactorily because of cleavage of not only the Si--H but also C--Si and C--H bonds. Direct halogenation with chlorination, bromine, and iodine proceeds smoothly, however. /Organosilanes/
Stability
Fumes strongly in moist air.
