Ring-opening halosilation of cyclicethers with reagents of (Me2N)2SiMe2/4MeI (1a) and (Me2N)2SiMe2/4allylBr (1b) was studied. Tetrahydrofuran and cyclohexene oxide reacted with 1a and 1b to give ring-opened di(haloalkoxy)dimethylsilanes in good yield. With less strained tetrahydropyran, however, only reagent 1a gave the ring-opened product. Reactions of reagents 1a and 1b with propylene oxide also
