1,3,5,7-Tetramethyl-1,3,5,7-tetrahydroxycyclotetrasiloxane has been synthesized in good yield from tetrapotassium tetramethylcyclotetrasiloxanolate. Methods for isolation of all-cis-isomer I and cis-trans-cis-isomer II as the only crystalline product have been developed. Both isomers have been characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), elemental analysis, NMR ((1)H, (13)C, (29)Si), and IR. The stability of these compounds in solutions and the solid state has been investigated.
