  2. Silicon–oxygen bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siliconoxygen_bond

    A siliconoxygen bond (Si−O bond) is a chemical bond between silicon and oxygen atoms that can be found in many inorganic and organic compounds. [1] In a siliconoxygen bond, electrons are shared unequally between the two atoms , with oxygen taking the larger share due to its greater electronegativity .

  3. Fleming–Tamao oxidation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fleming–Tamao_oxidation

    The Fleming–Tamao oxidation, or Tamao–Kumada–Fleming oxidation, converts a carbon–silicon bond to a carbon–oxygen bond with a peroxy acid or hydrogen peroxide. Fleming–Tamao oxidation refers to two slightly different conditions developed concurrently in the early 1980s by the Kohei Tamao and Ian Fleming research groups. [1] [2] [3]

    Thus the Si–F bond is significantly stronger than even the C–F bond and is one of the strongest single bonds, while the Si–H bond is much weaker than the C–H bond and is readily broken. Furthermore, the ability of silicon to expand its octet is not shared by carbon, and hence some organosilicon reactions have no organic analogues.

  5. Bonding in solids - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bonding_in_solids

    Intermediate organization of covalent bonds: Regarding the organization of covalent bonds, recall that classic molecular solids, as stated above, consist of small, non-polar covalent molecules. The example given, paraffin wax , is a member of a family of hydrocarbon molecules of differing chain lengths, with high-density polyethylene at the ...

  6. Organosilicon chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organosilicon_chemistry

    The C–Si bond is somewhat polarised towards carbon due to carbon's greater electronegativity (C 2.55 vs Si 1.90), and single bonds from Si to electronegative elements are very strong. [14] Silicon is thus susceptible to nucleophilic attack by O − , Cl − , or F − ; the energy of an Si–O bond in particular is strikingly high.

  7. Bond cleavage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bond_cleavage

    In a ring-opening, the cleaved molecule remains as a single unit. [5] The bond breaks, but the two fragments remain attached by other parts of the structure. For example, an epoxide ring can be opened by heterolytic cleavage of one of the polar carbon–oxygen bonds to give a single acyclic structure. [5]

    The AI revolution has already minted dozens of unicorns—startups valued at $1 billion before going public. Now it could create a whole new type of startup: the one-person unicorn.

  9. Dangling bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dangling_bond

    Creating dangling bonds with unpaired electrons can, for example, be achieved by cutting or putting large mechanical strain on a polymer. In this process, covalent bonds between carbon atoms are broken. One electron can end up on each of the carbon atoms that originally contributed to the bond, leading to two unpaired dangling bonds.
