The solvolysis of N,N'-diphenyl-1,1,3,3,5,5-hexamethyl-1,3,5-trisila-2,4-diaza-6-oxacyclohexane (II) in methanol/water in the presence of an acetate buffer is a two-step, pseudo-first-order, process.Both steps are subject to general acid catalysis and their catalytic rate constants have been determined spectrophotometrically.The ring cleavage is faster than that of analogous cyclosilazoxanes containing a single silazane bond (I), but the catalytic mode, substituent effects, and the solvent isotope effect indicate a close mechanistic similarity for the solvolysis of I and II.
