Application

1-(Trimethylsilyl) imidazole may be used for the synthesis an O-silylated derivative of a hexahomotriazacalix[3]arene. It may also be used for the silylation of Ti-MCM-41 catalyst, to study its effect on the olefin epoxidation with aqueous H₂O₂, 1-(Trimethylsilyl) imidazole was found to improve the hydrophobicity and the catalytic performance of Ti-MCM-41.
