SYNTHESIS OF CATALYSIS BY THE FUNCTIONALIZATION OF SILICA AND ITS APPLICATIONS

Hybrid organic-inorganic silica materials containing organic functional groups have been preparedby the reaction of activated silica with a silane coupling reagent such as N-(2-aminoethyl)3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane. The hybrid silica was further modified by organic compounds having abifunctional group. These modified hybrid silicas were used as catalysts for various nucleophilic reactions.And also, these were complexed with metallic ions for use as catalysts for oxygen oxidation of hydrocarbons.     

Preparation and application of nanocatalysts via surface functionalization of mesoporous materials

Surface immobilization of active species onto mesoporous materials is gaining importance, especially in the design of functionalized mesoporous materials as a nanocatalyst through heterogenization of homogeneous catalytic systems. This article summarizes recent work on the synthesis, characterization and catalytic performance of the functionalized mesoporous catalysts performed by the present authors. A cationic rhenium(I) complex was encapsulated into mesoporous Al-MCM-41 molecular sieve using a ion-exchange method, yielding a new photocatalyst to be active for photocatalytic reduction of CO₂. Surface functionalization of mesoporous silica SBA-15 with sulfonic acid groups was investigated to give a solid acid catalyst. The chemically modified Fe-containing mesoporous materials, which are active for hydroxylation of phenol, were prepared by a surface-grafting method that iron salts are immobilized onto mesoporous Si-MCM-41 with the help of 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane as a linker. A cobalt(III) complex was heterogenized onto mesoporous silica SBA-15 containing carboxylic groups in order to utilize as a solid catalyst for the liquid-phase oxidation of aromatic hydrocarbons.     

How to prepare reproducible, homogeneous, and hydrolytically stable aminosilane-derived layers on silica

Five functional silanes--3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES), 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (APTMS), N-(2-aminoethyl)-3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (AEAPTES), N-(2-aminoethyl)-3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (AEAPTMS), and N-(6-aminohexyl)aminomethyltriethoxysilane (AHAMTES)--were assessed for the preparation of hydrolytically stable amine-functionalized silica substrates. These can be categorized into three groups (G1, G2, and G3) based on the intramolecular coordinating ability of the amine functionality to the silicon center. Silanizations were carried out in anhydrous toluene as well as in the vapor phase at elevated temperatures. Aminosilane-derived layers prepared in solution are multilayers in nature, and those produced in the vapor phase have monolayer characteristics. In general, vapor-phase reactions are much less sensitive to variations in humidity and reagent purity, are more practical than the solution-phase method, and generate more reproducible results. Intramolecular catalysis by the amine functionality is found to be important for both silanization and hydrolysis. The primary amine group in the G1 silanes (APTES and APTMS) can readily catalyze siloxane bond formation and hydrolysis to render their silane layers unstable toward hydrolysis. The amine functionality in the G3 silane (AHAMTES) is incapable of intramolecular catalysis of silanization so that stable siloxane bonds between the silane molecules and surface silanols do not form easily. The secondary amine group in the G2 silanes (AEAPTES and AEAPTMS), on the other hand, can catalyze siloxane bond formation, but the intramolecular catalysis of bond detachment is sterically hindered. The G2 silanes are the best candidates for preparing stable amine-functionalized surfaces. Between the two G2 aminosilanes, AEAPTES results in more reproducible silane layers than AEAPTMS in the vapor phase due to its lower sensitivity to water content in the reaction systems.     

Zinkkomplexe des chelatisierenden N,S,S-Liganden N-(2-Mercaptoethyl)-2-mercaptoanilin

Zinc Complexes of the Chelating N,S,S Ligand N-(2-Mercaptoethyl)-2-mercaptoaniline The organic compound N-(2-mercaptoethyl)-2-mercaptoaniline (LH₂) which as a ligand offers two SH functions, which can be deprotonated, and one NH donor function was prepared by a new method. Its reaction with zinc salts yielded the 1:1 complex ZnL. The structure analysis identified the complex as a molecular tetramer with bridging thiolate groups, a tetrahedral ZnNS₃ coordination, and a step-like Zn₄S₄ ring as the central structural unit. Attempts to break up the tetramer by addition of coligands were successful only for 2,2′-bipyridine which produced the complex LZn · bipy.

Surface modification of pyrophyllite with amino silane coupling agent for the removal of 4-nitrophenol from aqueous solutions

The surface of naturally hydrophobic mineral pyrophyllite was modified to hydrophilic by treatment with prehydrolyzed N-(2-aminoethyl)-3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (APEO) coupling agent to prepare a novel and effective adsorbent for the removal of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) from aqueous solutions. XRD, FTIR, and SEM analyses were used to characterize the surface modification. It was found that after the grafting procedure, heat treatment at 110 degrees C results in condensation reaction between the OH groups of the APEO molecule and the hydroxyl groups and/or oxygen atoms on the pyrophyllite surface and the adsorption of 4-NP by APEO-modified pyrophyllite involves interactions between dissociated 4-NP molecules and protonated amine groups of APEO molecules attached to the mineral surface. Adsorption equilibrium data for 4-NP adsorption on APEO-treated and untreated pyrophyllite were most satisfactorily fitted using the Freundlich adsorption isotherm and adsorption capacity was found to be 0.268 mg/g for modified pyrophyllite whereas it was only 0.105 mg/g for untreated pyrophyllite.

Photoacoustic studies of complexation of copper(II) with an ethylenediamine analog immobilized on silica gel

Photoacoustic spectroscopy and solid-solution distribution measurements are used to study complexation of copper(II) with N-2-aminoethyl-3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane immobilized on silica gel. Nearly consecutive formation of bis and mono complexes occurs on the surface with increasing copper(II) concentration. Evidence for conversion of bis sites to mono sites with increasing copper(II) concentration was not found. Heterogeneous distribution measurements fit well with a model which assumes two independent types of binding sites. An approximately 2.5:1 ratio of mono to bis sites was found.     

Rearrangements in the haloalkoxy(mercapto,amino)-sym-triazine series

It is shown by means of an O¹⁸ label that the thermolysis of 2-methoxy-4-(2-chloroethoxy)-6-dialkylamino-sym-triazines to give oxazolo-sym-triazines in an inert medium proceeds without the formation of intermediate N-2-chloroethyl derivatives. In contrast to this, the thermolysis of 2-ethoxy(propoxy)-4-(2-chloroethoxy) derivatives gives N-2-chloroethyl derivatives, which upon prolonged heating are converted to oxazolo-sym-triazines. Triazinium salts are formed when both 2-chloroethoxy and N-2-chloroethyl derivatives are heated in water. The triazinium salts undergo rearrangement to N-2-chloroethyl derivatives when the water is removed. On the basis of the data obtained it is assumed that the thermolysis of 2-chloroethoxy-sym-triazines in an inert medium proceeds via a concerted mechanism, whereas thermolysis proceeds via an ionic mechanism in water. Data from the UV, IR, and PMR spectra are presented.See [1] for communication 3.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 1, pp. 124–127, January, 1979.     

Loading of silica spheres on concaved CuS cuboctahedrons using 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane as a linker

A new composite structure made of unique CuS cuboctahedron crystals and coating silica spheres with diameters ranged from 30 to 730 nm has been demonstrated. 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane acted as a linker, which provided hydrogen bonding and metal-ligand bonding interaction with the facets of CuS crystals and covalent bonding of its functional silane groups onto the surface of hydrophilic silica spheres, resulting in the formation of such a CuS/silica composite structure. The suitable proportion of the amount of silica spheres and CuS crystals determined the perfection of the CuS crystals/silica composite. The successful loading of silica spheres onto the polar facets of unique CuS cuboctahedron crystals represents a new way to prepare novel composite materials with special shape.     

Energetic quaternary salts containing bi(1,2,4-triazoles)

New energetic salts (2, 3, 9, 10, and 11) were synthesized via the protonation of 4,4'-bi(1,2,4-triazole) or N-4-(1,2,4-triazole)-N-3-(4-methyl-1,2,4-triazole)amine with nitric acid or perchloric acid or 5-nitro-tetrazole. The structures of 4,4'-bi(1,2,4-triazolium) nitrate (2), N,N-dimethyl-N'-(5-methyl-tetrazole)methanimidamide (8), and N-4-(1,2,4-triazole)-N-3-(4-methyl-1,2,4-triazolium)amine perchlorate (10) were confirmed by a single-crystal X-ray analysis. The physical properties and heats of combustion of the new ionic salts were measured, and the heats of formation were also determined.     

Thermometric and potentiometric titrations of modified glass surfaces

Glass surfaces modified with N-2-aminoethyl-3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane have been titrated with copper(II) by constant rate thermometric titration and by manual potentiometric titration with Gran plot end-point location. The results indicate that the titrant reacts with the bound ligand in a two-step process, with the thermometric titration responding to the first step and the potentiometric titration responding to the combined steps.     

Condensed heterocyclic systems with a quaternary nitrogen atom. III. Synthesis of benzimidazo[3,2-b]isoquinolinium perchlorates

Isochromylium cations containing easily detached groupings (NHCOR, NH₂, OCH₃) in the 3 position react readily with o-phenylenediamine. The reaction is accompanied by opening of the benzopyrylium ring and condensation of the resulting compound at one or two amino groups of o-phenylenediamine. Benzimidazo[3,2-b]isoquinolinium salts were synthesized alternatively by acylation of 2-(3,4-dimethoxybenzyl)benzimidazole. The tautomerism of the synthesized N-(2-aminoaryl)isoquinolinium perchlorates was investigated.See [1] for communication II.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 2, pp. 238–243, February, 1976.     

1-H2N-CB11F11]---synthesis and reactions of a functionalized fluorinated carbadodecaborate anion

In anhydrous hydrogen fluoride, K[1-H2N-CB11H11] is fluorinated with elemental fluorine to produce K[1-H2N-CB11F11]. Under strong alkaline conditions, two fluorine atoms of the [1-H2N-CB11F11]- anion are regioselectively exchanged, yielding the [1-H2N-4,6-(HO)2-CB11F9]- anion via [1-H2N-6-HO-CB11F10]- as an intermediate. Both hydroxycarborate anions were isolated as [Ph4P]+ salts. All of the species were characterized by IR, Raman, and multi-NMR spectroscopy, thermal analysis (DSC) as well as by mass spectrometry (MALDI). The assignment of the NMR signals was supported by DFT calculations. Solid-state structures of K[1-H2N-CB11F11], [BzPh3P][1-H2N-CB11F11], [Ph4P][1-H2N-4,6-(HO)2-CB11F9], [Ph4P][1-H2N-6-HO-CB11F10], and [BzPh3P][1-H2N-CB11H11] were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction.     

A convenient route to N-[2-(Fmoc)aminoethyl]glycine esters and PNA oligomerization using a Bis-N-Boc nucleobase protecting group strategy

A simple and practical synthesis of the benzyl, allyl, and 4-nitrobenzyl esters of N-[2-(Fmoc)aminoethyl]glycine is described starting from the known N-(2-aminoethyl)glycine. These esters are stored as stable hydrochloride salts and were used in the synthesis of peptide nucleic acid monomers possessing bis-N-Boc-protected nucleobase moieties on the exocyclic amino groups of ethyl cytosin-1-ylacetate, ethyl adenin-9-ylacetate and ethyl (O(6)-benzylguanin-9-yl)acetate. Upon ester hydrolysis, the corresponding nucleobase acetic acids were coupled to N-[2-(Fmoc)aminoethyl]glycine benzyl ester or to N-[2-(Fmoc)aminoethyl]glycine allyl ester in order to retain the O(6) benzyl ether protecting group of guanine. The Fmoc/bis-N-Boc-protected monomers were successfully used in the Fmoc-mediated solid-phase peptide synthesis of mixed sequence 10-mer PNA oligomers and are shown to be a viable alternative to the currently most widely used Fmoc/Bhoc-protected peptide nucleic acid monomers.     

Thermal behavior of aminotrimethoxysilanphosphonate functionalized onto styrene-divinylbenzene copolymer

Abstract

The chlorometylated styrene–divinylbenzene copolymer with different percent of divinylbenzene (code: S-6.7 DVB, S-12DVB, and S-15DVB) was functionalized with 3-hydroxybenzaldehyde for obtaining intermediated polymers. The aminotrimethoxysilanphosphonate groups were grafted by one-pot reactions in tetrahydrofuran using three components: polymers grafted with aldehyde groups (code: CHO-6.7, CHO-12, and CHO-15), 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane, diethylphosphite. The aminotrimethoxysilanphosphonate groups functionalized onto styrene-(6.7, 12, and 15%) divinylbenzene copolymer (code: PAF-6.7, PAF-12, and PAF-15) and evolution of the reaction were evidenced by FT-IR spectroscopy and porous structure by N₂ adsorption-desorption, SEM microscopy. The thermal behavior of aldehydes and materials: PAF-6.7, PAF-12, and PAF-15 are different than initial polymer supports.     

Preparation of porous aminopropylsilsesquioxane by a nonhydrolytic sol-gel method in ionic liquid solvent

The synthesis of porous aminopropylsilsesquioxane (APSS) has been achieved with 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate (BMIM(+)PF(6-)) ionic liquid (IL) as a template solvent by a nonhydrolytic sol-gel method of 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane under mild temperature. By the alteration of the amount of IL or the catalyst, the gels with various specific surface areas ranged from approximately 600 to approximately 1500 m(2) g(-1) were obtained after the remove of IL by calcination, and their N(2) sorption isotherms were typical IV-like isotherms with H2 hysteresis. The average Battett-Jouner-Halenda pore diameters ranged from 3.2 to 5.6 nm. The results demonstrated that BMIM(+)PF(6-) was physically embodied in the silsesquioxane bulk instead of the chemical bonding. Silsesquioxane has promise in catalysis, biosensors, etc. This work would also provide a way for us to prepare a wide variety of materials by using IL as a template solvent.     

Preparation and characterization of a novel organic-inorganic nanohybrid "cerasome" formed with a liposomal membrane and silicate surface

A novel class of organic-inorganic hybrids, the so-called cerasomes, which have a bilayer vesicular structure and a silicate surface, has been synthesized by combination of sol-gel reaction and self-assembly of organoalkoxysilanes with a molecular structure analogous to lipids. We have synthesized two cerasome-forming organoalkoxysilanes, N-[N-(3-triethoxysilyl)propylsuccinamoyl]dihexadecylamine (1) and N,N-dihexadecyl-N (alpha)-[6-[(3-triethoxysilyl)propyldimethylammonio]hexanoyl]glycinamide bromide (2), and investigated the synthetic conditions of the cerasomes and their structural characteristics. For the proamphiphilic 1, the cerasome was obtained under restricted pH conditions where acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of the triethoxysilyl moiety proceeded without disturbing the vesicle formation. In contrast, the amphiphilic 2, additionally having a hydrophilic quaternary ammonium group, formed stable dispersions of the cerasome in a wide pH range. The hydrolysis behavior of the triethoxysilyl groups was monitored by (1)H NMR spectroscopy. Morphology of the cerasomes having the liposomal vesicular structure was confirmed by TEM observations. Extent of the development of siloxane networks through condensation among the silanol groups on the cerasome surface was evaluated by using MALDI-TOF-MS spectrometry. Formation of oligomers of the cerasome-forming lipids in the vesicle was clearly confirmed. Due to the siloxane network formation, the cerasome showed remarkably high morphological stability compared with a reference liposome, as evaluated by surfactant dissolution measurements.     

Photoaddition of N-substituted piperazines to C60: an efficient approach to the synthesis of water-soluble fullerene derivatives

An oxidative radical photoaddition of mono N-substituted piperazines to [60]fullerene was systematically investigated. Reactions of C60 with piperazines bearing bulky electron-withdrawing groups (2-pyridyl, 2-pyrimidinyl) were found to be the most selective and yielded C60(amine)4O as major products along with small amounts of C60(amine)2. In contrast, interactions of fullerene with N-methylpiperazine and N-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)piperazine were found to have low selectivity due to different side reactions. Tetraaminofullerene derivative C60(N-(2-pyridyl)piperazine)4O was found to react readily with organic and inorganic acids to yield highly water-soluble salts (solubility approximately 150 mg mL(-1)). In contrast, C60(N-(2-pyrimidinyl)piperazine)4O undergoes hydrolysis under the same conditions and results in a complex mixture of compounds with an average composition of C60(N-(2-pyrimidinyl)piperazine)2(OH)2O. Radical photoaddition of N-(2-pyridyl)piperazine to fullerene derivatives can be used as a facile route for their transformation into water-soluble compounds. Two model fullerene cycloadducts (a methanofullerene and a pyrrolidinofullerene) were easily converted into mixtures of regioisomers of A=C60(N-(2-pyridyl)piperazine)4O (A=cyclic addend) that give highly water-soluble salts under acid treatment.     

Demonstrating the feasibility of monitoring the molecular-level structures of moving polymer/silane interfaces during silane diffusion using SFG

In this paper, the feasibility of monitoring molecular structures at a moving polymer/liquid interface by sum frequency generation (SFG) vibrational spectroscopy has been demonstrated. N-(2-Aminoethyl)-3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (AATM, NH2(CH2)2NH(CH2)3Si(OCH3)3) has been brought into contact with a deuterated poly(methyl methacrylate) (d-PMMA) film, and the interfacial silane structure has been monitored using SFG. Upon initial contact, the SFG spectra can be detected, but as time progresses, the spectral intensity changes and finally disappears. Additional experiments indicate that these silane molecules can diffuse into the polymer film and the detected SFG signals are actually from the moving polymer/silane interface. Our results show that the molecular order of the polymer/silane interface exists during the entire diffusion process and is lost when the silane molecules traverse through the thickness of the d-PMMA film. The loss of the SFG signal is due to the formation of a new disordered substrate/silane interface, which contributes no detectable SFG signal. The kinetics of the diffusion of the silane into the polymer have been deduced from the time-dependent SFG signals detected from the AATM molecules as they diffuse through polymer films of different thickness.
