They are organized into sections on the chemistry of organosilicon-based reactive intermediates, different aspects of molecular inorganic silicon chemistry, the basic chemistry of silicon in the coordination sphere of transitional metals (this includes such topics as silylene complexes, catalysis, and silicon-metal bonds), the role of silicon in organic and bioorganic chemistry, complex systems of organosilicon compounds in and for industrial applications, and solid silicon-based materials.
These polymers can be considered as perfectly alternating copolymers of disubstituted silylene and cis-1,4-but-2-enylene units.
