Nouveaux Matériaux hybrides organiques–inorganiques obtenus par action du tétraethoxysilane avec des molécules hétérocycliques bi-fonctionnelles

GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT

New hybrid organic–inorganic materials have been obtained by the reaction of tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS) with bi-functional heterocyclic molecules in ethanol using HCl as a catalyst at room temperature. This reaction has led to the formation of colored and transparent gels. The characterization of xerogels has been carried by infrared, ²⁹Si and ¹³C CP MAS-NMR, DTA–TGA, scanning electron microscopy, Brunauer–Emmet–Teller method (BET), and DRX. The obtained results show that organic molecules react with TEOS leading to gels, in which Si–N, Si–O, and Si–S bridges are formed. According to N₂-physisorption results, isotherms seem to have a similar sit, and classified as type IV according to the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry, synthesized X₁, X₂, and X₄ are mesoporous solids but X₃ is microporous. The BET surface area of these materials is important. It varied from 47 to 302 m²g⁻¹. The optic and magnetic properties of hybrids are also studied by Ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy and résonance para-électronique. The obtained results show that all materials are semiconductors, and X₂, X₃, and X₄ are paramagnetic but X₁ is diamagnetic.
