Growth and structure of crystalline silica sheet on Ru(0001)

Thin SiO? films were grown on a Ru(0001) single crystal and studied by photoelectron spectroscopy, infrared spectroscopy and scanning probe microscopy. The experimental results in combination with density functional theory calculations provide compelling evidence for the formation of crystalline, double-layer sheet silica weakly bound to a metal substrate.     

Molecular composites of poly(p‐phenylene terephthalamide) anion and poly(ethylene oxide): Thermal behavior and morphology

Molecular composites, in which a small concentration of ionically modified poly(p‐phenylene terephthalamide) (PPTA) is dispersed in a poly(ethylene oxide) matrix, have been prepared. With the content of PPTA anion increasing to about 5 wt %, the glass‐transition temperature rises and the melting temperature decreases. From the equilibrium‐melting‐temperature depression data that were obtained from Hoffman–Weeks plots, the Flory–Huggins interaction parameter was determined to be negative (−1.10). These indications of enhanced miscibility between the components are attributed to intermolecular ion–dipole interactions. The presence of rigid PPTA‐anion reinforcement alters the morphology; for example, the spherulite size is reduced, and the degree of crystallinity is lowered. Possible models of how the reinforcement is incorporated into the composite are presented. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci B: Polym Phys 38: 1369–1376, 2000     

1,2,4,5‐Tetrazines vs. Carboxylic Acid Dimers: Molecular Chemistry vs. Supramolecular Chemistry

The structures of six new tetrazines have been determined and their molecular packing has been compared to the supermolecular architecture observed in related carboxylic acid dimers. In the tetrazines, covalent N? N bonds are considered to replace the intermolecular O? H???O hydrogen bonds of the carboxylic acids. In the systems investigated, it is apparent that, in the majority of cases, the covalent six‐membered ring of the tetrazine is an appropriate replacement for the carboxylic acid synthon. This apparent interplay between molecular and supramolecular units may have applications in the crystal engineering of new materials.     

A simple and efficient one step synthesis of 1,3,4-oxadiazoles utilizing polymer-supported reagents and microwave heating

1,3,4-Oxadiazoles can be rapidly and efficiently synthesized from a variety of carboxylic acids and acid hydrazides in one simple step. The use of commercially available PS-PPh₃ resin combined with microwave heating delivered the product 1,3,4-oxadiazoles in high yields and purities.
