Electronic Communication in Confined Space Coronas of Shell-by-Shell Structured Al2O3 Nanoparticle Hybrids Containing Two Layers of Functional Organic Ligands

A first series of examples for confined space interactions of electron-rich and electron-poor molecules organized in an internal corona of shell-by-shell (SbS)-structured Al2O3 nanoparticle (NP) hybrids is reported. The assembly concept of the corresponding hierarchical architectures relies on both covalent grafting of phosphonic acids on the NPs surface (SAMs formation; SAM=self-assembled monolayer) and exohedral interdigitation of orthogonal amphiphiles as the second ligand layer driven by solvophobic interactions. The electronic communication between the chromophores of different electron demand, such as pyrenes, perylenediimides (PDIs; with and without pyridinium bromide headgroups) and fullerenes was promoted at the layer interface. In this work, it is demonstrated that the efficient construction principle of the bilayer hybrids assembled around the electronically “innocent” Al2O3 core is robust enough to achieve control over electronic communication between electron-donors and -acceptors in the interlayer region. The electronic interactions between the electron-accepting and electron-donating moieties approaching each other at the layer interface were monitored by fluorescence measurements.

RhL2 complexes of phosphonate-derivatized 2,2′-bipyridine (bpy) ligands L were immobilized on titanium oxide particles generated in situ. Depending on the structure of the bipy ligand—number of tethers (1 or 2) to which the phosphonate end groups are attached and their location on the 2,2′-bipyridine backbone (4,4′-, 5,5′-, or 6,6′-positions)—the resulting supported catalysts showed comparable chemoselectivity but different kinetics for the hydrogenation of 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-one under hydrogen pressure. Characterization of the six supported catalysts suggested that the intrinsic geometry of each of the phosphonate-derivatized 2,2′-bipyridines leads to supported catalysts with different microstructures and different arrangements of the RhL2 species at the surface of the solid, which thereby affect their reactivity.

Page/Page column 3, (2010/10/19)
The invention relates to a process for modifying an inorganic substrate, directed toward giving it antimicrobial properties, said process consisting in grafting in one or more steps onto a surface of said substrate groups with intrinsic antimicrobial properties or groups capable of releasing species with antimicrobial properties. The grafting is performed by means of an organophosphorus coupling agent. A subject of the invention is similarly a substrate obtained by this process, as well as diverse uses of such a substrate.
