The application belongs to the technical field of organic
silicon chemical synthesis, and relates to a preparation method of 1,3-dimethoxy-1,1,3,3-tetramethyldisiloxane. The method uses alkoxysilane
monomer and polysiloxane as raw materials, and under the action of a catalyst, is reacted at 60-80 DEG C for 1-3 h, then is subjected to rectification separation after temperature rising, after
recovery of low-boiling-point raw materials, a stable distillate at 138-140 DEG C is received under a
reflux ratio of 3-6:1, and the product is obtained; the alkoxysilane
monomer comprises dimethyldimethoxysilane, the low-boiling-point
raw material is dimethyldimethoxysilane, and the polysiloxane comprises oligomeric dimethylsiloxane. The method is a reaction rectification one-
step method, the steps are simple, no
solvent is needed, the raw materials are low in price, widely sourced, and do not need to use expensive
noble metal catalysts, and the specific
proton acid and Lewis acid are combined to catalyze the
rearrangement reaction, the product is easy to separate, the yield is high, and the method is convenient for popularization and application.
