Polydimethylsiloxanes containing phenethyl groups were obtained by hyd
rosilation of styrene with hydride-terminated polydimethylsiloxanes or
methylhydro-dimethylsiloxane copolymers. The chloromethylation of the
aromatic substituents in the presence of paraformaldehyde/trimethylch
lorosilane/SnCl4 system is described,
