Silaethene: Highly Correlated Wave Functions and Photoelectron Spectroscopic Evidence

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the XO bonds in phosphane oxides, sulfoxides, oxo acids and related compounds are better formulated as semipolar rather than as true double bonds, even if they behave in some respects like double bonds.

TL;DR: In this article, the first adamantyl-substituted silaethylene which is stable at room temperature was described and it has been characterized by ir, NMR, and mass spectroscopy.

TL;DR: In this article, the pyrolysis of azides XN3, i.e. compounds which tend to explode violently when ignited in the condensed phase but can be heated in low-pressure gas flow systems without much risk, illustrates that studies of reactive intermediates are of interest not only because novel molecules may be discovered and isolated, and thereby possibilities for synthesis expanded, but also because molecular dynamics becomes experimentally visible in the "chemical activation" of intermediates which leads to their "thermal explosion".

TL;DR: In this paper, the relationship between silaethenes and methylsilylenes has been investigated in an argon matrix via photochemically induced 1,2-H shift.

TL;DR: In this paper, the bisher beste Modell zur Beschreibung von Molekulzustanden sind Molekulorbitale, i.e., Molekule in ihren verschiedenen Energiezustandens, die jeweils eine bestimmte Struktur und charakteristische Eigenschaften aufweisen, and die der Chemiker als seine Synthese-Bausteine verwendet.
