The synthesis of ORganically MOdified SILica (ORMOSIL) particles has been carried out using both the hydrolytic and non-hydrolytic sol-gel routes. The hybrid (nano)composites are organically modified with an alkyl or aryl group covalently bonded to silicon. Hybrids have been synthesised in an aqueous sol-gel process by a modified Stöber route, producing spherical nanoparticles with diameters in the range 50–300 nm. The size of the particles can be controlled by control of certain reaction parameters. Smaller ormosil nanoparticles can be synthesised by a base-catalysed emulsion polymerisation route, by varying the type and concentration of surfactant and precursor feed rate. In this case, particles in the size range 3.5–10 nm can be obtained. Hybrids have been synthesised from hyperbranched polyesters by encapsulation in a silica matrix using the hydrolytic sol-gel route. Optimisation of the reaction conditions allows the hybrids to be produced as isolated sub-micron spherical particles. Ormosil particles have also been synthesised using the non-hydrolytic sol-gel route, which may lead to products of different morphologies because of the different polarity of the reaction medium. Different reaction conditions were studied in order to optimise the size and shape of the particles, including choice of solvent, use of surfactants and addition of polystyrene. Dimethylsulfoxide acts as a novel oxygen donor for the catalyst-free formation of colourless silsesquioxanes. 相似文献
A cubic (trivalent) graph is said to be 4-arc-transitive ifits automorphism group acts transitively on the 4-arcs of (wherea 4-arc is a sequence v0, v1, ... v4 of vertices of such thatvi1 is adjacent to vi for 1 i 4, and vi1vi+1for 1 i < 4). In his investigations into graphs of thissort, Biggs defined a family of groups 4+(am), for m = 3,4,5...,each presented in terms of generators and relations under theadditional assumption that the vertices of a circuit of lengthm are cyclically permuted by some automorphism. In this paperit is shown that whenever m is a proper multiple of 6, the group4+(am) is infinite. The proof is obtained by constructing transitivepermutation representations of arbitrarily large degree. 相似文献
The mass spectrum of penta acetyl gitoxin is reported and discussed. This cardenolide derivative has recently been the subject of extensive metabolic study. Fragmentation processes are described which account for all of the major ions. High resolution measurements, metastable peaks and mass shifts, for the propionyl derivative, are reported to establish the validity of these proposals. A brief indication of the potential value of this technique, when combined with deuteroacetylation, to metabolic studies in this field is given, along with comments on the spectra of related compounds. 相似文献
The enthalpy, ΔH = ?64.7 ± 4 kJ mol?1, for the reaction Pt(PPh3)2(η-C2H4)(s) + pcbd(g) → Pt(PPh3)2(η-pcbd)(s) + C2H4(g) where pcbd is 3-phenylcyclobutene-1,2-dione, , has been measured calorimetrically. The Ptolefin bond in this complex is slightly stronger than that in Pt(PPh3)2(η-PhCHCH2). 相似文献
The synthesis of squaric acid N-hydroxylamide esters 5 and amides 6 from dimethyl squarate 2a is described. These derivatives are analogues of the naturally occurring iron(III) chelator hydroxamic acid. On the basis of a comparative reactivity study, a concerted retro-Cope mechanism for the formation of the N-hydroxylamide esters 5 by reaction of dimethyl squarate with hydroxylamines is proposed. A preliminary iron(III) binding study of these hydroxamic acid analogues is presented, demonstrating binding of iron(III) to amides 6 in aqueous solutions, while the esters 5 did not show any sign of metal ion binding. 13C NMR spectroscopic data (chemical shift and spin-lattice relaxation time determination) of these and related derivatives delineate the resonance structures predominant in these molecules. The resonance structures of the derivatives rationalize their spectroscopic data, chemical reactivity, and iron(III) binding properties. Single-crystal X-ray structure analyses of squaric acid N-hydroxylamide ester 5b and squaric acid N-hydroxylamide amide 6c confirm their connectivity and provide structural evidence supporting the spectroscopically derived conclusions. The squaric acid N-hydroxylamides are potentially useful in the construction of chemosensors for iron(III). 相似文献
Methods described in the literature are inadequate for the preparation of pure polyethylene glycol (PEG) tosylate. Therefore an improved method is presented. The hydroxyl groups on PEG can be quantitatively converted into the tosylate and isolated from the reaction medium free from impurities with no chain cleavage or reduction in molecular weight. 1,2-Di(N-phenyl 2-aminoethoxy) ethane, α,ω-di(N-phenyl 2-aminoethyl) poly(oxyethylene), and α,ω-di(N-phenyl, N-benzyl 2-aminoethyl) poly(oxyethylene) were prepared from the tosylates of tri- and poly(ethylene glycol)s and the corresponding primary and secondary aromatic amines. 相似文献
Anthanthrene (1) derivatives substituted at the 4,10 and 6,12 positions (2-6) were synthesized as promising candidates for organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs). The emission of these compounds can be manipulated in the blue region (lambda(max) = 437-467 nm) through structural modifications. Photophysical and electrochemical properties (phi(F) = 0.20-0.47; tau(F) = 2.97-6.06 ns; HOMO-LUMO energy gap = 2.25-2.56 eV) as well as geometry optimized structures of 1-6 are reported. 相似文献
