Abstract
New organic crosslinking reagents 1 containing SiH bonds have been syntheslzed by platinum-catalyzed “Selective Hydrosilylatron” (SHS) reaction of either 1,9-decadiene 2a or diallyl ether of bisphenol A 2b with 2,4,6,8-tetramethylcyclotetrasiloxane [CH3(H)SiO]4 (3) (hereafter called hydrocyclotetrasiloxane) (eq 1). Identification of the new crosslinking reagents 1 was well performed by 1H NMR. The cyclic structure of the starting hydrocyclotetrasiloxane 3 was retained in the product 1 after the SHS reaction, as evidenced by 13C NMR analysis. The storage stability of 1 was significantly influenced by the amount of Pt catalyst still remaining in it. It could get much better when a decreased amount of Pt catalyst was used for SHS reaction and benzothiazole was added. Curing system composed of 1a and allyloxy end-blocked poly(propylene oxide) 4a was examined. Curing ability of the system was found to be dependent on temperature, amount of the Pt catalyst employed, and the number of the SiH bond per molecule of 1a. Rubbery materials could be obtained in a short period of time.

The results in Table V seem inconsistent with those in Table IV. But the different Pt solution was employed for each of the two cases. Recently it has been revealed that the older Pt solution gives shorter gel time. This activation behavior of the Pt species in an alcoholic solution is now under investigation by means of 195Pt NMR spectrometry.
Although 1a actually contains the olefin-isomerized components, we ignored them at the calculation of molecular weight of 1a because the amount of the normally-hydrosilylated components (δ 0.5–0.7 ppm) is much larger than that of the olefin-isomerized components (δ 5.4 ppm) (see Figure 1).
