Applications
Chlorotrimethylsilane is used to silanize laboratory glassware, which makes the surfaces more lipophilic. It is used in the production of trimethylsilyl halides, pseudohalides and various organic silicon compounds. It is also used to produce hexamethyldisilane by reduction.

Solubility
Miscible with ether, benzene, diethylether and perchloroethylene.
