Silicon tetrachloride is a toxic, corrosive water reactive substance that is used widely in the process industries. On spillage from containment it creates liquid pools that can either boil or evaporate. The main feature of the pool behaviour is the

Virtually perfect transmittal of the enolate reactivity up to five conjugated double bonds from the origin allows a series of furan-based silyloxypolyenes to add to aldehyde carbonyls at the most distant point of the molecule. Denmark's axially chiral bisphosphoramide/SiCl(4) combination

A series of four asymmetrically aryl-substituted 9,9'-spiro-9-silabifluorene (SSF) derivatives, 2,2'-di-tert-butyl-7,7'-diphenyl-9,9'-spiro-9-silabifluorene (PhSSF), 2,2'-di-tert-butyl-7,7'-dipyridin-2-yl-9,9'-spiro-9-silabifluorene (PySSF), 2,2'-di-tert-butyl-7,7'-dibiphenyl-4-yl-9,9'-spiro-9-silabifluorene (BPhSSF), and 2,2'-di-tert-butyl-7,7'-bis(2',2' '-bipyridin-6-yl)-9,9'-spiro-9-silabifluorene (BPySSF) are prepared through the cyclization of the corresponding 2,2'-dilithiobiphenyls with silicon tetrachloride. These novel spiro-linked silacyclopentadienes (siloles) form transparent and stable

Due to their wide thermal windows, ionic liquids can be regarded as the missing link between aqueous/organic solutions and high-temperature molten salts. They can be employed efficiently for the coating of other metals with thin layers of tantalum, aluminum, and
