Abstract
The chemical behaviour of 1,2-bis(trimethylsiloxy)cyclopropanes is described. Acid and base solvolyses as well as reactions with chlorine and bromine occur with opening of the ring leading to α-ketols, enones and β-diketones. Ketols and enones arise from a cyclopropanol type ring opening while the β-diketones resuit from the oxidation of the intermediate siloxycyclopropanols or cyclopropanediols. [Journal translation]
