Abstract

Carboxyalkyl-substituted organopolysiloxanes are prepared by hydrolysis of a silalactone composition having the formula ##STR1## where n has an average value greater than zero, R and Q are hydrocarbon and X is Cl or Br. Silicon-containing compounds having the formula R.sub.a Z.sub.b SiO.sub.(4-a-b)/2, where Z is a hydrolyzable radical, can be cohydrolyzed therewith. The novel silalactone composition is prepared by gently heating a mixture of an ester having the formula X.sub.2 R SiQCO.sub.2 R' and a halide salt catalyst, such as tetrabutylammonium bromide.
