Abstract
Hexamethyldisiloxane and hexamethylcyclotrisiloxane were almost completely deoligomerized with dimethyl carbonate over alumina-supported potassium fluoride catalyst to form methoxytrimethylsilane (85% yield) and dimethoxydimethylsilane (94% yield), respectively, and moreover the addition of a small amount of methanol to the hexamethyldisiloxane deoligomerization reaction enhanced the methoxytrimethylsilane yield to 98%.
