Abstract:This article studies the reactions and mechanisms of H 8 Si 8 O 12 (T 8 H 8 ) molecules with n-propanol, acetone, allyl alcohol, n-butylamine, allylamine, acetic acid, and 1-octene in air, at room temperature, and without catalysts. The reaction between T 8 H 8 and n-propanol involves both the highly polarized Si O and Si H bonds and results in cage breakage and forming Q 4 and Q 3 structures with OC 3 H 7 in the reaction product. T 8 H 8 also reacts with acetone, and the resultant product possesses Si OCH(CH … Show more
