Octamethylsilsesquioxane (Me8Si8O12) having a cage structure was rapidly prepared by means of microwave-assisted sol gel reaction of methyltrimethoxysilane as a trifunctional alkoxysilane with an aqueous basic solution in diglyme as a solvent. Moreover, octamethylsilsesquioxane was obtained as cubic particles in a good yield. Cubic octamethylsilsesquioxane could be formed under microwave irradiation owing to the formation of micelles which are organized by eight methyltrimethoxysilane molecules in diglyme.
