A base catalyzed hydrolysis of dialkoxydiphenylsilanes or dialkoxymethylphenylsilanes in a solvent or solvent mixture wherein dialkoxydiphenylsilanes or dialkoxymethylphenylsilanes are soluble but in which octaphenylcyclotetrasiloxane or tetramethyltetraphenyl-cyclotetrasiloxane is sparingly soluble or insoluble provides for a process to prepare octaphenylcyclotetrasiloxane or sym-tetramethyltetraphenyl-cyclotetrasiloxane in high yield.
