Dermatology, 2000 Since silicone has rapidly become one of the most commonly used prosthetic materials in the last 30 years in modern medicine, we have consequently been witnessing more silicone-related disease. Especially after silicone breast implantation, defects in the breast implant have led to serious complications, whereas complications of silicone prosthesis ...

Silicon–silicon π single bond [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2020 AbstractA carbon–carbon double bond consists of a σ bond and a π bond. Recently, the concept of a π single bond, where a π bond is not accompanied by a σ bond, has been proposed in diradicals containing carbon and heteroatom radical centers. Here we report a closed-shell compound having a silicon–silicon π single bond.
