RESUMO
This paper presents the results of studies on the pervaporation properties (for benzene/hexane mixtures) and gas permeability (for He, H2, N2, O2, CO2, CH4, C2H6, and C4H10) of ladder-like polyphenylsesquioxanes (L-PPSQ) with improved physical and chemical properties. These polymers were obtained by condensation of cis-tetraphenylcyclotetrasiloxanetetraol in ammonia medium. The structure of L-PPSQ was fully confirmed by a combination of physicochemical analysis methods: 1H, 29Si NMR, IR spectroscopy, HPLC, powder XRD, and viscometry in solution. For the first time, a high molecular weight of the polymer (Mn = 238 kDa, Mw = 540 kDa) was achieved, which determines its improved mechanical properties and high potential for use in membrane separation. Using TGA and mechanical analysis methods, it was found that this polymer has high thermal (Td5% = 537 °C) and thermal-oxidative stability (Td5% = 587 °C) and good mechanical properties (Young's module (E) = 1700 MPa, ultimate tensile stress (σ) = 44 MPa, elongation at break (ε) = 6%), which is important for making membranes workable under various conditions. The polymer showed a high separation factor for a mixture of 10% wt. benzene in n-hexane (126) at a benzene flow of 33 g/(m2h).
RESUMO
In order to expand the range of materials that can be used in outer space and in development of small spacecraft, ladder polyphenylsilsesquioxanes with different molar weights and the Nb-siloxane composites based on them were studied. The properties of the polymer films were studied, including tests in an oxygen plasma flow. Both initial and filled ladder polymers feature extremely low erosion coefficients in the region of 10-26 cm3/atom O at a high fluence of atomic oxygen of 1.0 × 1021 atom O/cm2. Ladder polyphenylsilsesquioxane films irradiated with atomic oxygen (AO) retain their integrity, do not crack, and exhibit good optical properties, in particular, a high transmittance. The latter slightly decreases during AO exposure. The Nb-siloxane filling retains the AO resistance and slight decrease in optical transmission due to diffuse scattering on the formed Nb-[(SiO)x] nanoparticles. Ladder polyphenylsilsesquioxanes demonstrate their suitability for creating protective, optically transparent coatings for small spacecraft that are resistant to the erosive effects of incoming oxygen plasma.
RESUMO
A series of new tetrachromophoric systems based on stereoregular tetracyclosiloxanes and dibenzoylmethanatoboron difluoride derivatives have been synthesized and characterized by a complex of physicochemical methods. The photophysical properties of the synthesized compounds are studied by electronic absorption, steady-state, and time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy. In the synthesized compounds, four dibenzoylmethanatoboron difluoride (DBMBF2)-based fluorophores are in an all-cis arrangement with respect to a cyclotetrasiloxane scaffold. DFT calculations predict that they can form H-type dimers, trimers, or tetramers with an antiparallel orientation of their ground-state dipole moments. Under UV excitation, solutions of these compounds in polar and nonpolar solvents exhibit complex fluorescence consisting of monomer- and excimer-like emissions with different lifetimes. Global fitting analysis reveals the presence of at least four kinetically distinguishable species in the excited state. The studied compounds in solutions have CIE chromaticity coordinates very close to the white color point and are promising objects for the development of next-generation single-emission materials for white illumination.
RESUMO
The synthesis of a storage-stable organosilicon modifier with a dioxaborolane-protecting group is described. Its high reactivity and selective anti-Markovnikov addition in hydrosilylation reactions to afford siloxanes of various structures are shown. The possibility of deprotection of both the initial modifier and its siloxane derivatives under mild conditions using water in yields up to 96% is demonstrated. The existence of an equilibrium between the organosilicon derivatives of phenylboronic acids and their cyclic six-membered boroxines was confirmed by 1H NMR spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis data. The use of siloxane derivatives of phenylboronic acids in Suzuki-Miyaura and Chan-Lam cross-coupling reactions was studied. All synthesized compounds were characterized by NMR (1H, 11B, 13C, and 29Si), IR spectroscopy, and high-resolution mass spectrometry.

New non-crystallizable low-dispersity star-shaped polydimethylsiloxanes (PDMS) containing stereoregular cis-tetra(organo)(dimethylsiloxy)cyclotetrasiloxanes containing methyl-, tolyl- and phenyl-substituents at silicon atoms and the mixture of four stereoisomers of tetra[phenyl(dimethylsiloxy)]cyclotetrasiloxane as the cores were synthesized. Their thermal and viscous properties were studied. All synthesized compounds were characterized by a complex of physicochemical analysis methods: nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), FT-IR spectroscopy, gel permeation chromatography (GPC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), viscometry in solution, rheometry, and Langmuir trough study.
RESUMO
A versatile equilibrium method for synthesizing ladder-like polyphenylsilsesquioxanes (L-PPSQs) with various molecular weights (from 4 to 500 kDa) in liquid ammonia was developed. The effect of diverse parameters, such as temperature, monomer concentration, reaction time, addition or removal of water from the reaction medium, on the polycondensation process was determined. The molecular weight characteristics and structure of the L-PPSQ elements obtained were determined by GPC, 1H, 29Si NMR, IR spectroscopy, viscometry, and PXRD methods. The physicochemical properties of L-PPSQs were determined by TGA and mechanical analyses.
RESUMO
This study presents the synthesis of organoboron derivatives of stereoregular 4-, 6-, and 12-unit phenylcyclosilsesquioxanes. All compounds obtained were isolated in good yields (70-80 %) and were fully characterized by 1 H, 13 C, 29 Si, 11 Bâ NMR, IR spectroscopy, HRMS ESI, and elemental microanalysis. The structure of the key modifier, obtained for the first time, 4-(tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)phenyl) dimethylvinylsilane, was also confirmed by single-crystal XRD.
RESUMO
Synthesis of organosilicon products with a "polar" functional group within organic substituents is one of the most fundamentally and practically important challenges in today's chemistry of silicones. In our study, we suggest a solution to this problem, viz., a high-efficiency preparative method based on aerobic Co-/ N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHSI) catalyzed oxidation of p-tolylsiloxanes to p-carboxyphenylsiloxanes. This approach is based on "green", commercially available, simple, and inexpensive reagents and employs mild reaction conditions: Co(OAc)2/NHSI catalytic system, O2 as the oxidant, process temperature from 40 to 60 °C, atmospheric pressure. This reaction is general and allows for synthesizing both mono- and di-, tri-, and poly( p-carboxyphenyl)siloxanes with p-carboxyphenyl groups at 1,1-, 1,3-, 1,5-, and 1,1,1-positions. All the products were obtained and isolated in gram amounts (up to 5 g) and in high yields (80-96%) and characterized by NMR, ESI-HRMS, GPC, IR, and X-ray data: p-carboxyphenylsiloxanes in crystalline state form HOF-like structures. Furthermore, it was shown that the suggested method is applicable for the oxidation of organic alkylarene derivatives (Ar-CH3, Ar-CH2-R) to the corresponding acids and ketones (Ar-C(O)OH and Ar-C(O)-R), as well as hydride silanes ([Si]-H) to silanols ([Si]-OH). The possibility of synthesizing monomeric (methyl) and polymeric (siloxane-containing PET analogue, Sila-PET) esters based on 1,3-bis( p-carboxyphenyl)disiloxane was studied. These processes occur with retention of the organosiloxane frame and allow to obtain the corresponding products in 90 and 99% yields.
