Summary: In the 1990's, carbohydrate modified silicones were developed as a novel class of hydrophilic modified silicones which are now ready for marketing and industrially available, mainly as ingredients of cosmetic formulations. This report focuses on the synthesis of α,ω‐carbohydrate modified linear poly(dimethylsiloxane)s by hydrosilylation reactions. Thus, a series of carbohydrate derivatives was synthesised and reacted with a hydrodimethylsilyl‐terminated poly(dimethylsiloxane) applying Speier's catalyst. The resulting oils were characterised by MALDI TOF MS and NMR spectroscopy. Deprotection gave a series of novel amphiphilic modified silicones, which were more viscous than their protected analogues, due to hydrogen bonding.
