Trimethylsilylacetylene is a colorless liquid that is a derivative of acetylene. Called "tms acetylene", it is used as a source of "HC₂⁻". The trimethylsilyl group can then be cleaved off with TBAF. Using this protected alkyne, as opposed to acetylene itself, prevents further coupling reactions and also has the benefit of being a liquid.[1] A less expensive alternative reagent is 2-methylbut-3-yn-2-ol, which after alkynylation is deprotected with base.

Trimethylsilylacetylene is commercially available. It may also be prepared in a manner similar to other silyl compounds: deprotonation of acetylene with a Grignard reagent, followed by reaction with trimethylsilyl chloride.[2]

Trimethylsilylacetylene is a precursor to 1,4-bis(trimethylsilyl)buta-1,3-diyne, a protected form of 1,3-butadiyne.[3]
