    Which of these is not a monomer for a high molecular mass silicone polymer? [NEET 2013]

    A) \[MeSiC{{l}_{3}}\]

    B) \[M{{e}_{2}}SiC{{l}_{2}}\]

    C) \[M{{e}_{3}}SiCl\]

    D) \[PhSiC{{l}_{3}}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    [c]  is not a monomer for a high molecular mass silicone polymer because it generates Me3SiOH when subjected to hydrolysis which contains only one reacting site. Hence, the polymerisation reaction stops just after first step.
