Abstract
Linear polydialkylsiloxanes undergo cleavage upon heating with alkyl orthotitanates containing primary and secondary alkyl radicals, and the reactions are independent of the structure of radicals attached to the Si atoms, molecular weight, and the nature of the end groups. The factor which seems to determine the reactivity of polydialkysiloxanes with respect to cleavage at room temperature is the presence of CH end groups. The rate and degree of conversion in these reactions is decreased by increasing steric hindrance at the Si or Ti atoms.
