Abstract
Abstract Process for preparing organosiloxanes having in the molecule at least one unit of the general formula ##STR1## in which R is C 1-4 alkyl or a phenyl group, R' represents an aliphatic or aromatic group composed of carbon, hydrogen and optionally oxygen and having a valency of n+1, Y represents OH or alkoxy, a is 0, 1 or 2, b is 0 or 1 and n is 1, 2 or 3. The process comprises reacting an organosiloxane having silicon-bonded hydroxyalkyl or hydroxyaryl substituents with the appropriate acid chloride. The organosiloxanes absorb ultra violet radiation and are useful as sunscreen agents. Also claimed are certain novel siloxanes which can be obtained by the said process.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim
221 words
A process for the preparation of an organosiloxane having in the molecule at least one unit of the general formula ##STR12## wherein R represents an alkyl group having from 1 to 4 inclusive carbon atoms or a phenyl group, R' represents an aliphatic or aromatic group having a valency of n+1 and being composed of carbon and hydrogen or of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen wherein the oxygen is present in the form of ether linkages or in hydroxyl groups, Y when present represents a hydroxyl group or an alkoxy group having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms, a has a value of 0, 1 or 2, b is 0 or 1 and n is 1, 2 or 3, said process comprising reacting together (A) an organosiloxane having in the molecule at least one unit of the general formula ##STR13## any remaining units in the organosiloxane having the general formula ##STR14## wherein R and a are as hereinabove defined, G represents a monovalent aliphatic or aromatic group composed of carbon, hydrogen and, optionally, oxygen in the form of ether linkages and having substituted therein at least one alcoholic or phenolic hydroxyl group, Q represents a monovalent hydrocarbon group and d is 0, 1, 2 or 3, and (B) a compound having the general formula ##STR15## Y and b being as hereinabove defined.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
221 words
A process for the preparation of an organosiloxane having in the molecule at least one unit of the general formula ##STR12## wherein R represents an alkyl group having from 1 to 4 inclusive carbon atoms or a phenyl group, R' represents an aliphatic or aromatic group having a valency of n+1 and being composed of carbon and hydrogen or of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen wherein the oxygen is present in the form of ether linkages or in hydroxyl groups, Y when present represents a hydroxyl group or an alkoxy group having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms, a has a value of 0, 1 or 2, b is 0 or 1 and n is 1, 2 or 3, said process comprising reacting together (A) an organosiloxane having in the molecule at least one unit of the general formula ##STR13## any remaining units in the organosiloxane having the general formula ##STR14## wherein R and a are as hereinabove defined, G represents a monovalent aliphatic or aromatic group composed of carbon, hydrogen and, optionally, oxygen in the form of ether linkages and having substituted therein at least one alcoholic or phenolic hydroxyl group, Q represents a monovalent hydrocarbon group and d is 0, 1, 2 or 3, and (B) a compound having the general formula ##STR15## Y and b being as hereinabove defined.
