Bis(trimethylsilyl)mercury History

Bis(trimethylsilyl)mercury (CAS NO.4656-04-6) was first synthesized by Wiberg et al. in 1963, by the reaction of trimethylsilyl bromide with sodium amalgam:
2 Na + Hg + TMSBr → TMS2Hg + 2 NaBr

May ignite spontaneously in air. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of Hg. See also MERCURY COMPOUNDS, INORGANIC; MERCURY COMPOUNDS, ORGANIC.

Bis(trimethylsilyl)mercury Analytical Methods

On prolonged heating at 100-160 °C, or when stood under light as an ethereal solution, it decomposes to hexamethyldisilane:
TMS2Hg → (CH3)3Si-Si(CH3)3 + Hg
Reaction with hydrogen chloride gives trimethylsilane and trimethylsilyl chloride:
TMS2Hg + HCl → TMSH + TMSCl + Hg
