'''Potassium bis(trimethylsilyl)amide''' (commonly abbreviated as '''KHMDS''', Potassium('''K''') '''H'''exa'''M'''ethyl'''D'''i'''S'''ilazide) or potassium hexamethyldisilazane<ref name="auto"/> is the chemical compound with the formula ((CH<sub>3</sub>)<sub>3</sub>Si)<sub>2</sub>NK. It is a strong, non-nucleophilic base with an approximate pK<sub>a</sub> of 26 (compare to [[lithium diisopropylamide]], at 36).{{Citation needed|date = September 2011}}


==Structure==
'''Potassium bis(trimethylsilyl)amide''' is the chemical compound with the formula ((CH<sub>3</sub>)<sub>3</sub>Si)<sub>2</sub>NK. This species is usually called potassium hexamethyldisilazane (KHMDS), although the proper nomenclature is potassium hexamethyldisilazanide since the nitrogen is deprotonated. It is a strong, non-nucleophilic base with an approximate pK<sub>a</sub> of 26 (compare to [[lithium diisopropylamide]], at 36).
In the solid state, the unsolvated compound is dimeric, with two potassium and two nitrogen atoms forming a square. This compound is soluble in hydrocarbon solvents and conducts electricity poorly in solution and in the melt. This is attributed to very strong [[ion pair]]ing.<ref>{{cite journal | doi = 10.1021/ic00333a029 | journal = [[Inorg.
