Macrocycles containing isoxazoline or isoxazole ring systems, potential receptors in host—guest chemistry, have been prepared by multiple (double, triple or quadruple) 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions of nitrile oxides, (prepared in situ from hydroxamoyl chlorides) to bifunctional calixarenes, ethylene glycols, or silanes containing unsaturated ester or alkene moieties (453). This one-pot synthetic method has been readily extended to the preparation of different types of macrocycles such as cyclophanes, bis-calix[4]arenes and sila-macrocycles. The ring size of macrocycles can be controlled by appropriate choices of the nitrile oxide precursors and the bifunctional dipolarophiles. Multiple cycloadditive macrocy-clization is a potentially useful method for the synthesis of macrocycles. 

Kawakami et al. have prepared optically active bifunctional l,3-dimethyl-l,3-diphenyldisiloxanes.158,159 Strohmann et al. have prepared enantiomerically enriched Si-centered silyllithium compounds, which react stereo-specifically with triorganochlorosilanes.160-162 In solution, slow racemization of the silyllithium compounds takes place, which, however, can be circumvented by transmetallation with MgBr2. Oestreich et al. prepared new Si-centered cyclic silanes adopting the strategies developed by Corriu and Sommer.163 Bienz et al. have developed enantioselective routes for the preparation of C-centered chiral allenylsilanes.156,164-166... 

It is also worthwhile to outline at this place the immobilization procedure that was used for the preparation of type I CSPs A bifunctional linker with a terminal isocyanate on one side and a triethoxysilyl group on the other end (3-isocyanatopropyl triethoxysilane) was reacted with the native cinchona alkaloids quinine and quinidine and subsequently the resultant carbamate derivative in a second step with silica [30], Remaining silanols have been capped with silane reagents, yet, are less detrimental for acidic solutes because of the repulsive nature of such electrostatic interactions. CSPs prepared in such a way lack the hydrophobic basic layer of the thiol-silica-based CSPs mentioned earlier, which may be advantageous for the separation of certain analytes. 

The first report on the construction of a SA multilayer appeared in 1983 [193]. A terminally bifunctional surfactant, 15-hexadecenyltrichlorosilane, was the initial building block for the formation of a SA monolayer. The trichloro-silane functionality reacted, as did OTS, with both of the hydroxyl groups on the substrate surface and with adsorbed water to form a network of Si -O-Si bonds in the SA monolayer. Conversion of the terminal double bonds to hydroxyl group functionality allowed the chemisorption of a new layer of surfactants to produce a SA bilayer (Fig. 20) [193]. The process could be repeated to form subsequent multilayers.

We have previously reported on the synthesis of a series of mono- and bifunctional poly(DMS) having a variety of reactive end groups, such as silan (Si-H), vinyl, hydroxyalkyl, dimethylamino and carboxyllic acid groups.7 We have also described already on telechelic poly(DMS) having tosylate end group, lb and l b, where the hydrosilation reaction of poly(DMS) having silan end group was performed with allyl alcohol in the presence of Pt/C catalyst, followed by the tosylation reaction with tosyl chloride in the presence of dimethylaminopyridine.9... 

The aminosilane coupling agent 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane or y-amino-propyltriethoxy silane—also abbreviated as 3-APS, y-APS, APS or A1100 (Union Carbide)—is widely used to promote adhesion between polyimide thin films and mineral surfaces such as native-oxide silica, alumina and various glass ceramics [1, 2]. The structure of APS and the hydrolysis reaction sire shown in Fig. 1. Typically, dilute aqueous solutions of 0.1 vol% or approximately 0.080 wt % are employed to prime the mineral surface. The mechanism for the interaction of the bifunctional aminosilane with the mineral surface is the subject of much speculation, although it is conjectured by Linde and Gleason [3] that the amine end initially forms an electrostatic bond with surface hydroxyls. Subsequently, possibly as the result of elevated temperatures, the silanol end of the molecule proceeds to form a siloxane-like bond with the surface and the amine...

For the monofunctional APTS, the observed deposition profile is identical to that reported by Vandenberg et al., using liquid/solid ellipsometry.15 The rapid, first equilibrium is followed by an additional adsorption. The equilibrium situation is related to the localized adsorption of silane molecules on the surface hydroxyls. Thus forming a monolayered coating on the surface. The extent of the additional adsorption was found to be not very reproducible and not strictly correlated to the initial silane concentration. At any time it showed not to have the step-wise profile, as found for the bifunctional aminosilane. Therefore, this last adsorption appears to be of a nonspecific type. We will discuss this further below. 

Summarizing, aminosilanes show a fast adsorption on the silica surface. An equilibrium monolayer coating is formed. Modification in aqueous solvent causes polymerization on top of the initial monolayer. For modification from organic solvent, the reactions can be better controlled. With the bifunctional AEAPTS, a secondary silane layer adsorbs on the free primary amine groups of the first monolayer. At high concentration and after long reaction times, for both aminosilane types, a further non-specific deposition occurs. 

A dielectric oxide layer (eg. silica) is useful as a shell material because of the stability it lends to the core and its optical transparency. The classic method of Stober for solution deposition of silica are adaptable for coating of nanocrystals with silica shells.111 This method relies on the pH and the concentration of the solution to control the rate of deposition. The natural affinity of silica to oxidic layers has been exploited to obtain silica coating on a family of iron oxide nanoparticlcs including hematite and magnetite111 Such a deposition process is not readily extendable to grow shell layers on metals. The most successful method for silica encapsulation of metal nanoparlides is that due to Mulvaney and co-workers.114 In this method, the surface of the nanoparticles is functionalized with aminopropyltrimethylsilane. a bifunctional molecule with a pendant silane group which is available for condensation of silica. The next step involves the slow deposition of silica in water followed by the fast deposition of silica in ethanol. Fig. 13 shows the TEM images... 

Hi. Carbon-silicon bonds. Following the earlier reports mentioning the palladium-catalysed addition of organosilylstannanes to alkynes or isonitriles , Mori and coworkers realized tandem transmetallation-cyclization reactions with bifunctional halogeno triflates and Bu3SnSiMe3 18. The reactivity of 18 under palladium catalysis was used for the silylstannylation of alkenes or the synthesis of allylic silanes via a three-component (aryl iodide - - diene - - 18) coupling reaction. Recently, a similar... 

The reaction of trimethyl(perfluorophenyl)silanc with carbonyl centers occurs under mild reaction conditions, similar to those used for trimethyl(trifluoromethyl)silane. Acetyl fluoride in acetonitrile in the presence of catalytic amounts of potassium fluoride gives l-fluoro-l-(penta-fluoropheny )ethyl acetate (12) in 65% yield. When the bifunctional acid fluoride perfluoro-glutaryl difluoride reacts with trimethyl(perfluorophcnyl)silane in acetonitrile in the presence of potassium fluoride, the perfluorinated diketone perfluoro(l,5-diphenylpcntane-l,5-dione)... 

We have synthesized aldehyde-functionalized silanes as a new class of spacer molecules for silica surfaces. The aldehyde group can be used to attach biomolecules directly to the surface, with no bifunctional crosslinking species required (Fig. IB) [3]. As many immobilization problems are closely related to the use of the crosslinking agent (e.g., glutaraldehyde tends to form undesirable polymers) [4], the development of a one-step immobilization method is a significant improvement.
