Tetramethylsilane (TMS) is a chemical compound commonly used as a reference standard in proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR) spectroscopy. It is a volatile, colorless liquid with a characteristic silicone-like odor. TMS plays a crucial role in the interpretation and analysis of 1H NMR spectra, particularly in the context of integration of absorptions and the various uses of 1H NMR spectroscopy.
