Summary

  1. 1.

    Bistetra methylenesilane, dimethylpenta methylenesilane, and symmetrical tetramethyldipentyldisiloxane were synthesized.

  2. 2.

    it was shown that silacyclopentanes and their derivatives undergo quantitative scission at the Si-C bond in the ring when treated with concentrated sulfuric acid, the examples taken being bistetra methylenesilane and diethylbistetramethylenedisiloxane.

  3. 3.

    It was shown that, when silacyclohexanes (the example taken being dimethylpentamethylenesilane) react with concentrated sulfuric acid, reaction proceeds in two directions- scission of the Si-C bond in the ring and elimination of a methyl group from the silicon atom.
