Multifunctional polymethylsilsesquioxane (PMSQ) surfaces prepared by electrospinning at the sol-gel transition: superhydrophobicity, excellent solvent resistance, thermal stability and enhanced sound absorption property

Multifunctional superhydrophobic polymethylsilsesquioxane (PMSQ) surfaces with excellent solvent resistance, thermal stability and enhanced sound absorption property were manufactured by electrospinning. The surfaces with various hierarchical morphologies and hydrophobicity were obtained by electrospinning at the different stages of sol-gel transition of PMSQ prepolymer solution. At the stage with a proper viscosity the superhydrophobic PMSQ surface with a contact angle as high as 151° and a sliding angle as low as 8° was prepared. Due to the excellent thermal stability and solvent resistance properties of the cured PMSQ, the resultant surfaces remain superhydrophobicity after thermal treatment at 300 °C and immersion into many solvents. Additionally, an enhanced acoustical performance and ultra water repellency were obtained simultaneously when the traditional acoustical sponge was decorated with the electrospun PMSQ superhydrophobic surface. The robust superhydrophobic PMSQ surfaces may promise practical applications in many fields.     

Synthesis and characterization of amino functionalized ladder-like polysilsesquioxanes and their hybrid films with polyimide

Ladder-like polysilsesquioxanes (LPSQs) with different amino contents have been synthesized by controlling of the dosage of Pd/C catalyst. The concentration and activity of amino groups were investigated by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Polyimide (PI)/LPSQ hybrid films have been prepared by incorporating of the obtained LPSQs with different amino contents into PI matrix, respectively. The interfacial interactions between PI matrix and LPSQ were studied with scanning electron microscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, meanwhile the thermal and mechanical properties of the hybrid films were studied using dynamic mechanical analysis and tensile tests. The results indicate that the functionality of LPSQ has great effects on the interfacial interactions and the properties of hybrid films. With the increase of amino content, both the interfacial interactions and the cross-linking density of hybrids enhanced, which results in the decline of surface silicon concentration, increase of Young’s modulus and drop of elongation at break. Excessive amino content makes the hybrid films brittle and leads to incomplete imidization.

Synthesis,characterization and structure of the Bis(methyl-cyclopentadienyl)vanadium(IV) carboxylates

The 1,1’-dimethylvanadocene dichloride ((C₅H₄CH₃)₂VCl₂) reacts in aqueous solution with various carboxylic acids giving two different types of complexes. The 1,1’-dimethylvanadocene complexes of monocarboxylic acids (C₅H₄CH₃)₂V(OOCR)₂ (R=H,CCl₃, CF₃, C₆H₅) contain two monodentate carboxylic ligands, whereas oxalic and malonic acids act as chelate compounds of the formula (C₅H₄CH₃)₂V(OOC-A-COO) (A=−, CH₂). The structure of the (C₅H₄CH₃)₂ V(OOCCF₃)₂ complex was determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The isotropic and anisotropic EPR spectra of all the complexes prepared were recorded. The obtained EPR parameter values were found to be in agreement with proposed structures.     

Synthesis,characterization and crystal structure of ruthenium(II) polypyridyl complexes

[Ru(bipy)2(5-R-phen)](ClO4)2 complexes have been prepared, where bipy=2,2- bipyridine, phen=1,10-phenanthroline, and R=H, Me, NO2 or NH2. The influence of the different 5- substituted phen on the electron delocalization and ligand-ligand interactions have been investigated by solution n.m.r.. The ligand- ligand interaction has also been observed in the solid state by determining the single crystal structure of [Ru(bipy)2(5- NO2-phen)](ClO4)2. The strong steric interaction between the polypyridyl ligands was relieved neither by the elongation of Ru–N bonds (2.055–2.086Å) nor by increase of N–Ru–N bite angles (77.8–79.4°), but rather by distortion of the coordination sphere by forming specific angles (=2.0, 3.2 and 4.2°) between the polypyridyl ligand planes and coordination planes (N–Ru–N), and larger torsion angles (5.8 and 8.2°) between the two pyridine rings for each bipy.

Synthesis,characterization and crystal structure of triphenylphosphine copper(I) methylpyruvate thiosemicarbazones

This paper reports the synthesis of a series of methylpyruvate thiosemicarbazone derivatives containing, on the terminal nitrogen, substituents of different nature and size and namely, ethyl, phenyl and methylphenyl. These ligands were reacted with bis(triphenylphosphine)copper(I) nitrate and acetate to produce the respective complexes: [Cu(PPh₃)₂(Et-Hmpt)]₂(NO₃)₂ (1), [Cu(PPh₃)₂(Ph-Hmpt)]NO₃ (2), [Cu(PPh₃)₂(MePh-Hmpt)]NO₃ (3), [Cu₂(O₂CCH₃)(Et-pt)(PPh₃)₂] · H₂O (4), [Cu(Ph-mpt)(PPh₃)] (5) and [Cu₂(MePh-mpt)₂(PPh₃)₂] (6). All of them were characterized by elemental analysis, IR, ¹H NMR, EPR spectroscopy and, for compounds 1, 2, 4, and 6, by X-ray crystallography. The characterization revealed that the coordinating behaviour of the ligands is influenced by a series of factors, predominant among which is the hard soft nature of the atoms involved in the interactions with the metal centre. The complexes obtained from the nitrate copper(I) salt are formed by cationic molecules with a nitrate as a counterion, while those derived from the acetate salt present deprotonated ligands and a few unexpected features. In particular, one of the compounds (4) is a mixed valence dinuclear complex with an acetate oxygen and the thiosemicarbazone sulfur acting as bridging between the two Cu(I) and Cu(II) ions. Another one (6) presents instead a Cu(I)–Cu(I) sulfur bridged binuclear cluster.

The oxo-bridged dimer (μ-O)[ReO(mta)₂]₂ (2) was synthesized by reacting [ReOCl₃(PPh₃)₂] with a twofold excess of Hmta in a 9?:?1 acetone/water mixture. The compounds were characterized by spectroscopy and complex 1 also by X-ray crystallography. Complex 1 has a distorted octahedral geometry with the chloride coordinated trans to the oxo group, and with the chelating ligands in the equatorial plane in a cis-N cis-S configuration.     

Synthesis,characterization and crystal structure of a chiral polymeric Cu(II) complex bridged by tartrate

A chiral metal-organic coordination polymer, [Cu(Tar)(2,2′-bipy) · 5H₂O] (1) (Tar = L-tartrate dianion, 2,2′-bipy = 2,2′-bipyridine), has been synthesized by hydrothermal reaction of Cu(OAc)₂, Na₂T (H₂T = 2,3-O-isopropylidene-L-tartaric acid) and 2,2′-bipyridine, and characterized by IR, UV–vis spectra, elemental analyses, TG-DTA, and single crystal X-ray diffraction. In the hydrothermal reaction, the protection group isopropylidene for tartaric acid was hydrolyzed. The crystal structure of the coordination polymer 1 shows that each tartrate chelates two Cu(II) ions at opposite ends using one carboxylate oxygen and one hydroxyl oxygen and each Cu(II) ion is chelated by two halves of tartrate dianions, forming coordination polymer chains. Distorted octahedral geometry around copper is completed by a chelating 2,2′-bipyridine molecule. The 2,2′-bipyridine groups in two of parallel 1-D chains are interwoven, constituting ladder-shaped double chains. Strong offset π–π stacking interactions with a face-to-face distance of 3.33 Å for pyridine rings are observed. All the lattice water molecules hydrogen-bond to each other or to the carbonyl oxygen of tartrate, forming a 3-D supramolecular structure.
