Synthesis and characterization of organic–inorganic hybrid mesoporous silica materials with new templates†
Abstract
1-Hexadecane-3-methylimidazolium bromide and 1-hexadecane-2,3-dimethylimidazolium bromide were used as new templates for the syntheses of periodic mesoporous organosilica (PMO) materials; using these new templates, ethane-bridged PMO materials were successfully synthesized and characterized under basic conditions.
