'''Hexamethyldisilane''' (]<sub>2</sub>) is the ] with the formula Si<sub>2</sub>(CH<sub>3</sub>)<sub>6</sub>, abbreviated Si<sub>2</sub>Me<sub>6</sub>. It is a colourless liquid, soluble in organic solvents.<ref>Tamejiro Hiyama, Manabu Kuroboshi, "Hexamethyldisilane" Encyclopedia of Reagents for Organic Synthesis, 2001 John Wiley & Sons. {{doi|10.1002/047084289X.rh015}}</ref>
==Synthesis and reactions==
Hexamethyldisilane can be produced by ] of trimethylsilyl chloride in the presence of a reducing agent such as ]:
:{{chem2|2 Me3SiCl + 2 K -> Me3Si\sSiMe3 + 2 KCl}}
With an excess of the reductant, the alkali metal silyl derivative is produced:<ref>{{cite journal |doi=10.1016/0022-328X(88)80634-X|title=Efficient formation and cleavage of disilanes by potassium-graphite.

The Si-Si bond in hexamethyldisilane is cleaved by strong nucleophiles and electrophiles. Alkyl lithium compounds react as follows:
'''Hexamethyldisilane''' is a ] of the ] (TMS) group, linked through a silicon-silicon bond.
