Organosilicon Chemistry

Organosilicon chemistry is the study of organometallic compounds that contain carbon-silicon bonds.

Most organosilicon compounds are similar to ordinary organic compounds as they are colorless, flammable, hydrophobic, and stable to air.

Charles Friedel and James Crafts made the first organochlorosilane compound in 1863.
