The invention provides organosilicon compounds of the formula: STR1 in which: N IS 1, 2 OR 3; Each R, which may be identical or different, is a monovalent organic group which contains a carbon-carbon double bond and from 2 to 10 carbon atoms; Each R1, which may be identical or different, is a straight or branched alkyl radical optionally substituted by one or more halogen atoms or cyano groups; an aryl radical or an alkylaryl radical optionally substituted by one or more halogen atoms; R2 is a straight or branched divalent alkylene or alkylidene radical possessing up to 4 carbon atoms; X is a divalent radical consisting of, or containing, at least one hetero-atom selected from oxygen, sulphur and nitrogen atoms, the radical being attached to the radical R2 via a said hetero-atom; G is an organic radical of valency (m+ l) possess from 1 to 30 carbon atoms; m is 1, 2 or 3; And each Y, which may be identical or different, is a functional group selected from: --NO2, STR2 --COOM (where M represents a sodium, potassium or lithium atom); --COOR4 ; STR3 --COCl; --OH; --OR4 ; STR4 --SH; --SR4 ; STR5 --CONH2 ; --CSNH2 ; --CN; --CH2 --NH2 ; --CHO; STR6 --NCO; STR7 wherein R3 represents a hydrogen atom or a straight or branched alkyl radical possessing up to 6 carbon atoms and R4 represents an alkyl radical possessing up to 4 carbon atoms, with the proviso that two Y groups can together constitute an imide group STR8 wherein R5 represents a hydrogen atom or a straight or branched alkyl radical possessing up to 4 carbon atoms. These are useful intermediates in the preparation of disilanes and silicon polymers, in particular of polyethylenic silicon compounds which can be polymerized with an α, ω-dihydrogenopolysiloxane to give thermoplastic elastomers.
