We have developed microporous organic-inorganic hybrid nanocomposites by alkoxysilylation of 4,4′-biphenyl-bridged alkoxysilane compounds, which contain triethoxysilyl, methyldiethoxysilyl, and dimethylethoxysilyl groups at each end of the 4,4′-biphenylene unit ((CH3)n(C 2H5O)3-n-Si-C12H8-Si- (OC2H5)3-n(CH3)n, n = 0, 1, or 2, abbreviated as BESB(0), BESB(2), or BESB(4), respectively, where the number in parentheses indicates the number of methyl groups in these molecules), in the interlayer of a crystalline layered silicate, ilerite. XRD, 29Si solid-state NMR and fluorescence spectroscopy revealed the immobilization and bridging formation of the BESB molecules between the silicate layers by condensation, not only with H-ilerite, but also with the BESB molecules. The interlayer structures exhibited different molecular arrangements. BESB(0) and BESB(4) molecules are present as a monolayer arrangement in which BESB(0) molecules form the oligomeric species caused by close stacking like a dimer. BESB(2) molecules form mainly bilayer-like aggregates in the interlayer. The structural differences are caused by the different reactivities of the BESB molecules, which control their polymerization in the interlayer. The resultant BESB(0)- and BESB(2)-ilerite had high microporosity with BET surface areas (508 and 578 m2 g-1 for BESB(0)- and BESB(2)-ilerite, respectively). The micropores showed higher toluene adsorptivity than several other porous silica materials due to the successful surface modification. Consequently, this approach provides a new method for constructing novel microporous nanocomposites, the key to improved selectivity and activity in separation and catalytic applications.

The zirconocene-coupling of diynes with internal silicon substituents, MeC≡CMe2SiArSiMe2C≡CMe (1: Ar = 1,4-C6H4; 2: Ar = 1,3-C6H4; 3: Ar = 1,3-C6H4; 3: Ar = 4,4'-C6H4C6H4), generates regiospecific polymers containing zirconacyclopentadiene in the main chain (5-7). These organometallic polymers hydrolyze cleanly to butadienediyl polymers of the type [Me2SiArSiMe2CH = CMeCMe = CH](n) (11-13), and polymer 5 reacts with iodine to give the iodine-containing polymer [1,4-Me2SiC6H4SiMe2C(I)=CMeCMe=C(I)](n) (14). The organometallic polymers undergo facile and high-yield degradations to macrocycles under mild conditions (refluxing tetrahydrofuran solution). The size and shape of the resulting macrocycles depend upon the nature of the diyne spacer group. Thus, polymers 5 and 7 containing parallel diyne units convert to the trimeric macrocycles [Me2SiArSiMe2C4Me2ZrCp2]3 (15: Ar = 1,4-C6H4; 24: Ar = 4,4'- C6H4C6H4), while polymer 6 gives the dimeric macrocycle [1,3- Me2SiC6H4SiMe2C4Me2ZrCp2]2 (18). The dimeric macrocycle [Me2SiC6H4SiMe2C6H4SiMe2C4Me2ZrCp2]2 (20) was obtained directly from the zirconocene coupling of Me2Si[(1,4-C6H4)- SiMe2(C≡CMe)]2 (4) by heating the reaction mixture to reflux. In a similar manner, the diyne Me2Si(C≡CMe)2 was converted in high yield to the hexameric macrocycle [Me2SiC4Me2ZrCp2]6 (22). The macrocycles 15, [1,4-Me2SiC6H4SiMe2C4Me2H2]3 (16), and 18 were characterized by single-crystal X-ray crystallography. Molecules of 15 adopt a nearly planar C3 macrocyclic structure with a cavity described by an average transannular Si···Si distance of 13.2 A?, while the hydrolyzed macrocycle 16 has a chair conformation. This conformation change results from conversion of cis diene groups in the zirconacyclopendiene fragments to trans diene groups in 16. The high- yield formation of macrocycles apparently results from the reversible nature of the alkyne-coupling reaction, which allows for a low-energy pathway to the smallest macrocycle possessing minimal ring strain.
