Tris(dimethylsilyl)methyl lithium, (HSiMe~2~)~3~CLi, reacts with allyl, phenyl, benzyl, n‐propyl and n‐butyl glycidyl ethers in THF at ‐5 °C to give 1‐oxa‐2‐silacyclopentane derivatives. It seems that ring closure is facilitated by conversion of the SiH bond into an SiO bond. Glycidyl methacrylate (GM) random copolymers with 4‐methyl‐ and 4‐methoxy styrene, synthesized by solution free radical polymerization at 70 (±1) °C with α,α‐azobis(isobutyronitrile) (AIBN) as initiator, contained pendant epoxide functions. Treatment of these with (HSiMe~2~)~3~CLi did not lead to intramolecular nucleophilic attack as found for simple epoxides.
