Fabrication of soft-etched nanoporous polyimide membranes for ionic conduction and discrimination
2021
Abstract Ionic selectivity in nanopores is usually based either on steric or charge exclusion mechanisms. By simultaneously incorporating both mechanisms into a functionalized membrane, an improved control over selectivity can be achieved. We describe the fabrication and experimental characterization of alkali metal cation-selective nanopores in heavy ion-tracked polyimide (PI) membranes using the soft-etching (SE) technique. The latent ion tracks in the PI membrane are selectively dissolved by an organic solvent to form tiny pores without affecting the bulk material. The ionic transport properties of SE-PI membranes are characterized using different electrolyte solutions containing alkali …
Highly Defined, Colloid‐Like Ionic Clusters in Solution
2012
Many societal challenges at the beginning of the 21st century lead to an apparent and growing need for functional materials and novel ways of materials synthesis and assembly. Rising to the challenge, the utilization of small, self-assembling building blocks for the bottom-up construction of new types of polymers and nanostructures has enjoyed increasing popularity among materials researchers in the recent past. Supramolecular materials like foldamers, surface films, nanoparticles, etc. are created by exploiting noncovalent forces [1] leading to an ordered arrangement of nanoscale building blocks. [2] In the search for new polymers based on noncovalent molecular forces, we are motivated by …
Synthesis of plagiochiline N from santonin.
2001
This article reports the transformation of O-acetylisophotosantonin, obtained by photochemical rearrangement of santonin, into plagiochiline N, an ent-2,3-secoaromadendrane isolated from Plagiochila ovalifolia. The synthesis was carried out in a sequence involving as the key steps (a) the substitution of the lactone moiety by a gem-dimethylcyclopropane ring through a synthetic intermediate having a C(6)-C(7) double bond and (b) the ozonolysis of the C(2)-C(3) bond followed by cyclization to the dihydropyran ring characteristic of plagiochiline N. Spectroscopic data of the synthetic product fully coincided with the reported data for the natural product.
Polymorphic and solvate structures of ethyl ester and carboxylic acid derivatives of WIN 61893 analogue and their stability in solution
2014
3-Ethyl ester- (1) and 3-carboxylic acid-isoxazole (2) derivatives of an antiviral drug analogue WIN 61893 were synthesized and characterized by X-ray crystallography and NMR spectroscopy. Crystallization experiments afforded two polymorphic structures for the ethyl ester derivative and two solvate structures for the carboxylic acid derivative based on their ability to form intermolecular hydrogen bonding interactions with the solvent molecules. The conformations of the derivatives depended greatly on the orientation of the planar isoxazole and phenyl-oxadiazole ring systems with respect to one another and were found to take up perpendicular, linear or tilted conformations. The carboxylic a…
Anionic tert-butyl-calix[4]arenes substituted at the narrow and wide rim by cobalt bis(dicarbollide)(1−) ions and CMPO-groups. Effect of stereochemis…
2013
Abstract Two ionic calix[4]arenes substituted at the narrow rim with an unpaired number ( n ) of cobalt bis(dicarbollide)(1−) anions ( 1 − ) ( n = 1 and 3) and (4 − n ) CMPO groups ( 3c , 4c ) have been synthesized via a three-step procedure based on nitrile substituted calix[4]arene precursors. Conjointly with them, the compound with a paired ratio of the groups, where n = 2 and the same substituents are located in mutually adjacent 1,2-positions, is reported ( 5c ). Another compound with the paired ratio, but from a wide rim series ( 6c ) ( n = 2) was successfully prepared starting from calix[4]arenes substituted with two nitro functions and two –OH sites available for further modific…
Grafting of polymer chains on the surface of carbon nanotubes via nitroxide radical coupling reaction
2015
Poly(butylene succinate) (PBS) was grafted on the surface of TEMPO (2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1-piperidinyloxy) modified multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) via a nitroxide radical coupling reaction. TEMPO functionalized MWCNTs (MWCNTs-g-TEMPO) were synthesized using the Cu(I)-catalyzed azide/alkyne click chemistry approach and the covalent bond of the nitroxide moieties onto the MWCNTs was confirmed via electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy. The PBS grafting on the sidewalls of MWCNTs was carried out in solution via peroxide-induced formation of macroradicals and it was confirmed by EPR and attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared analysis. Preliminary rheological …
Understanding the origin of the asynchronicity in bond-formation in polar cycloaddition reactions. A DFT study of the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition react…
2012
The origin of the asynchronicity in bond-formation in polar cycloadditions has been studied by an ELF analysis of the electron reorganisation along the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of Padwa's carbonyl ylide 4 with the 1,2-benzoquinone 8. This reaction presents an unexpected asynchronous bond-formation, which is initialised through the nucleophilic attack of Padwa's carbonyl ylide on the carbonyl oxygen atom of the strongly electrophilically activated 1,2-benzoquinone. The present study allows for the establishment that along an asynchronous bond-formation, the more favourable two-center interaction begins at the most electrophilic center, which is the center with the highest spin density achie…
Fluorinated Heterocyclic Compounds. An Expedient Route to 5-Perfluoroalkyl-1,2,4-triazoles via an Unusual Hydrazinolysis of 5-Perfluoroalkyl-1,2,4-ox…
2003
The hydrazinolysis reaction of 5-perfluoroalkyl-1,2,4-oxadiazoles has been investigated. Nucleophilic addition of the reagent to the C(5)-N(4) double bond of the oxadiazole ring, followed by ring-opening and then ring-closure involving the beta-nitrogen atom of the hydrazino moiety and the C(3) of the oxadiazole ring, explains the formation of 5-perfluoroalkyl-1,2,4-triazoles as final products. Useful applications in synthesis of this uncommon hydrazinolysis can be claimed.
Reactivity of the carbon-carbon double bond towards nucleophilic additions. A dft analysis
2004
Abstract The global and local electrophilicity indexes have been used to characterize the reactivity pattern of the CC double bond towards nucleophilic addition reactions. A wide family of molecules including ketones, esters, anhydrides, nitriles and nitrocompounds containing appropriate substitution on the CC double bond have been classified within an unique scale of reactivity. The predictive capability of the theoretical model is tested against a series of benzylidenemalononitriles and substituted α-nitrostilbenes.
Chemistry and reactivity of mononuclear manganese oxamate complexes: Oxidative carbon-carbon bond cleavage of vic-diols by dioxygen and aldehydes cat…
2006
[EN] Two new mononuclear octahedral manganese(III) complexes with the tetradentate equatorial ligand o-phenylenebis(oxamate) (opba) and two aquo (1a) or two pyridine (1b) axial ligands have been synthesized and characterized structurally, magnetically, and electrochemically. The cyclovoltammogram of 1a in acetonitrile (25 degrees C, 0.1 M Bu4NPF6) shows an irreversible one-electron oxidation peak at a high anodic potential (E-ap = 1.03 V versus SCE), while that of 1b shows two well-separated one-electron oxidation peaks at moderate to high anodic potentials (E-ap = 0.92 and 1.27 V versus SCE), the first redox-wave being quasireversible in nature. The access to formally high-valent Mn-IV and…
