1. A process for making alkenyl disiloxanes, comprising:
combining an alkenyl halosilane with an alkyl halosilane and adding the mixture to water, an acidic aqueous solution, or a basic aqueous solution, wherein:
the alkenyl halosilane has Formula A

OG Complex Work Unit Chemistry
and
the alkyl halosilane has Formula B

OG Complex Work Unit Chemistry
wherein:
X is, independently at each occurrence, F, Cl, Br or I;
n is 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6;
R1 is, independently at each occurrence, H or C1-C3 alkyl;
R2 is, independently at each occurrence, H or C1-C3 alkyl;
also provided that one or more of R1 and one or more of R2 can combine to form a ring;
R3 is, independently at each occurrence, H or C1-C6 alkyl;
one R4 is H; and
each remaining R4 are C1-C3 alkyl at each occurrence.
