- Increasing the Diameter of Vertically Aligned, Hexagonally Ordered Pores in Mesoporous Silica Thin Films
-
The variation in pore size in mesoporous films produced by electrochemically assisted self-assembly (EASA) with the surfactant chain length is described. EASA produces a hexagonal array of pores perpendicular to the substrate surface by using an applied potential to organize cationic surfactants and the resultant current to drive condensation in a silica sol. Here, we show that a range of pore sizes between 2 and 5 nm in diameter is available with surfactants of the form [Me3NCnH2n+1]Br, with alkyl chain lengths between C14 and C24. The film quality, pore order, pore size, and pore accessibility are probed with a range of techniques.

- The synthesis of a single enantiomer of a major α-mycolic acid of M. tuberculosis
-
We report a synthesis of a single enantiomer of a mycolic acid from Mycobacterium tuberculosis containing a di-cis-cyclopropane. The method can be simply varied to modify the chain lengths or the absolute stereochemistry of either cyclopropane.

- Aligned Inclusion of Hemicyanine Dyes into Silica Zeolite Films for Second Harmonic Generation
-
Silicalite-1 films (thickness = 400 nm) supported on both sides of glass plates (SL/G) were prepared, and hemicyanine dyes (HC-n) with different alkyl chain lengths (n, n = 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 22, and 24) were included into the silicalite-1 films by dipp
