Superparamagnetic Ceramic Nanocomposites: Synthesis and Pyrolysis of Ring-Opened Poly(ferrocenylsilanes) inside Periodic Mesoporous Silica
Abstract
[1]Silaferrocenophanes fcSiMe2 (1) and fcSi(CH2)3 (3) (fc = Fe(η5-C5H4)2) were incorporated into the well-ordered, hexagonal channels of mesoporous silica (MCM-41). Characterization of the composite materials indicates the presence of ring-opened monomer, oligomer, and polymer, and, in the case of 1, also free monomer. Polymerization of monomer 1 inside the channels of MCM-41 was demonstrated by DSC. However, in the case of 3 only the …
