Abstract The reactions of organosiloxanes containing the vinyl group in the α-and β- positions, with diazomethane and phenyl azide have been studied. It is concluded that siloxanes containing the vinyl group in the α-position react with diazomethane and phenyl azide but not siloxanes with the vinyl group in the β-position. The 1-pyrazolin-3-yl derivatives of organosiloxanes formed decompose when heated yielding the corresponding allyl ...
