Synthesis and characterization of some bis(hydroxyalkyl)- and bis(hydroxyester)-functionalized disiloxanes

Novel hydroxyester disiloxanes (1,3-bis(6-hydroxyhexanoylmethyl)-1,1,3,3-tetramethyl disiloxane and 3-bis(2-hydroxypropanoylmethyl)tetramethyl disiloxane) were synthesized, and preparation of other known monomers, namely 1,3-bis(hydroxypropyl)-1,1,3,3-tetramethyl disiloxane, 1,3-bis(hydroxyethoxypropyl)-1,1,3,3-tetramethyl disiloxane and 1,3-bis(hydroxymethyl)-1,1,3,3-tetramethyl disiloxane was developed to obtain better yields and reduce production time and expense. All compounds were characterized by infrared spectroscopy, using 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and 29Si NMR and were reacted with diisocyanates, resulting in poly(siloxane-urethane) copolymers with unique properties.
