Abstract
A template-directed process, using 1-dodecylamine as a template, is developed for the synthesis of mesoporous silicas containing the phosphonic acid derivatives ≡Si(CH2)2P(O)(OC2H5)2 and ≡Si(CH2)3P(O)(CH3)(ONa) in the surface layer. The porous materials obtained by removing the template with boiling methanol have specific surfaces of 854 and 505 m2/g, accessible pore volumes of 0.42 and 0.37 cm3/g, and pore diameters of 2.2 and 2.5 nm, respectively. As shown by scanning electron microscopy and x-ray diffraction, the mesoporous silicas are nonuniform in particle shape and size, and their structure is less ordered than that of classic mesoporous silicas, such as MCM-41. IR and 13C, 31P, and 29Si CP/MAS NMR spectroscopy data indicate that, in the surface layer of the mesoporous silica prepared with the use of ≡Si(CH2)2P(O)(OC2H5)2, the functional groups are present in the form of T 2 and T 3 structural units. In addition, the surface layer contains alkoxy groups and water, which participates in hydrogen bonding.
