МОДИФИЦИРОВАНИЕ АМИНОГРУППАМИ СФЕРИЧЕСКИХ ЧАСТИЦ SiO2-TiO2 И TiO2, ПОЛУЧЕННЫХ ПЕРОКСИДНЫМ МЕТОДОМ

Серии пористых композитных оксидов SiO2-TiO2 и чистого TiO2 со сферической морфологией частиц были получены пероксидным методом, далее они были использованы в качестве подложек для катализаторов. Аминопропилтриметоксисилан (АПТМС) был присоединен к поверхности подложки в строго безводной реакционной среде, что приводит к тому, что аминогруппы присоединяются ковалентно к поверхности подложки. Процедура присоединения аминопропилтриметоксисилана является несложной и может быть применена также для других органических соединений, имеющих различные функциональные группы. Для изучения процесса термической обработки подложки были прокалены при различных температурах перед тем, как были использованы в реакциях присоединения органических молекул, содержащих функциональные группы. Было установлено, что количество органических молекул, присоединяющихся к поверхности подложки в ходе реакции различается незначительно в зависимости от температуры обработки подложки, это указывает на то, что в реакцию с органическими молекулами вступают главным образом изолированные гидроксильные группы, наиболее стабильные из всех гидроксильных групп, остающиеся на поверхности даже после прокаливания при 700 °С. Присоединенные аминогруппы будут иметь применение в качестве каталитических центров в различных реакциях органической химии, таких как ацилирование аминов и спиртов, полимеризация лактонов с гидроксильными группами, изомеризация ненасыщенных углеводородов, альдольная конденсация, реакции Дильса-Альдера, Михаэля, Невенагеля и т. д. Механизм активирования реакций аминогруппами включает перенос электронной плотности к реагирующей молекуле и формирование переходного комплекса. В то время как наиболее широко распространенные основные катализаторы являются аминами в агрегатном состоянии жидкости и представляют собой гомогенные катализаторы существует потребность в формировании гетерогенного катализатор. Гетерогенный катализ позволяет избежать загрязнения продуктов реакции исходными реагентами, а также позволяет осуществлять регенерацию катализатора и его многократное использование. Полученные катализаторы имеют высокое содержание присоединенных аминогрупп (1 ммоль/г) с учетом их локализации на поверхности материала.

Introduction

Catalysts are inherent part of modern organic chemistry. Catalysts simplify proceeding of chemical reactions, make it faster, more selective, allowing to lower the temperatures of processes. Wide groups of synthetic reactions proceed with homogeneous Lewis basic catalysts - these are amines, quaternary ammonium salts, nitrogen-containing heterocycles, phosphines, etc. The catalytic mechanism of Lewis basic sites origins from the interaction between a base site and an electrophilic compound, the activation of reagents proceeds through the transfer of electron density towards the reacting molecule. The intermediate compound is usually a highly reactive hypervalent [1] complex. Lewis base catalysts involve electrophilic, nucleophilic and ambiphilic reagents [2] to the reaction. This group of reaction includes: acylation of amines and alcohols [3], polymerization of lactones with hydroxyl groups [4], isomerization of unsaturated compounds [5], aldol condensation [6], Diels-Alder [7], Michael [8], Knoevenagel [9] reactions, etc. While the widely applied base catalysts are homogeneous, the desired requirement is to transform the homogeneous catalysis to the heterogeneous form. This improvement allows getting rid of catalyst traces in products and regenerating the catalyst itself. To do this the homogeneous catalyst may be anchored on the solid support - TiO2, SiO2 are widely used. These oxides are non-toxic, inert,

cheap and can even improve reactivity of the anchored catalyst because of the enhanced adsorption of reagents on the surface. They exhibit optimal distribution of catalyst active sites, high surface area [10, 11]. Nevertheless that deposition of the thin layer of a catalyst on the surface of a support allows avoiding the agglomeration of catalyst particles. The mechanism of reaction rate enhancement on the heterogeneous catalysts in comparison to the homogeneous ones includes the adsorption of reacting species on the catalyst surface - this increases concentration of reagents near the active sites [12]. Varying the catalyst support it is possible to precisely tune such properties as specific surface area, point of zero charge (affects the reagents adsorption), size of pores (allows molecule size selectivity). The shape of support particles is not the least important parameter - spherical particles are most desired for the flow processes because they arrange the laminar flow of reaction solution providing more stable conditions.

The composite SiO2-TiO2 oxide has higher stability of porous structure in conditions of high temperature and moisture than the individual oxides. In the present study both pure TiO2 and composite SiO2-TiO2 materials have been used as the catalyst support. Pure TiO2 and composite SiO2-TiO2 materials for the catalyst support can be prepared via different synthesis routes: sol-gel, hydrothermal, high temperature oxidation, etc. Here we propose the recently developed peroxo route for preparation of composite oxide materials. This route allows the preparation of spherical particles with high surface area and desired size [13, 14] without using toxic, unstable, expensive titanium alkoxides. The method allows for porous structure without the use of templates, via the simple reflux procedure.

Subsequent procedure of aminopropyltrimethoxysilane grafting results in the inorganic support modified with amino groups. Grafted amino groups are thermally stable up to 250 °C. Their quantity reaches 1.31 mmols/g, taking into account their surface localization, the density of amino groups is very high. Basicity of amino groups is on the medium level for catalysis of such reactions as Knoevenegel and Michael condensation, the solid support is stable at reaction conditions, the spherical shape is suitable for the flow process.

Experimental

Chemicals and characterization Titanium oxysulfate hydrate (TiOSO4H2O) containing 17 % of H2SO4 was used as titania source, it was provided by Alfa Aesar. TEOS (tetraethylorthosilicate), aqueous ammonia (NH3H2O) solution of 25 wt %, «-propanol, and H2O2 were of analytical grade and were produced by Reachim. Aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (APTMS) of 98 % purity was provided by Sigma Aldrich.

Morphological investigation of the prepared materials was performed by a JEOL JSM 7001F field emission scanning electron microscope (SEM). Specific surface area, and pore size distribution of me-sopores were probed by N2 adsorption at 77 K using an ASAP 2020 Micromeritics analyzer. All ami-nomodified samples were degassed at 100 °C for 2 h prior to analysis. Thermoanalytical studies were performed using a simultaneous TG-DSC thermal analyzer Netzsch 449 F1 in the temperature range from 25 to 1000 °C in argon flow at the heating rate of 10 K min-1. FTIR spectra were recorded using a Shimadzu IR Affinity spectrometer. Calcination of materials was performed in a NABERTHERM oven in the atmosphere of air.

Preparation of porous TiO2 and SiO2-TiO2 spheres via the peroxo route Preparation of support materials proceeded according to the protocol, described in the articles [13, 14]. Peroxo route was used for the preparation of both pure TiO2 and composite SiO2-TiO2 spheres. For the surface area the enhancement reflux procedure was applied [14].

Preparation proceeded in the following way: 10 mmol of TiOSO4 was dissolved in distilled water, after this 10 mL of aqueous ammonia were added. The colloid precipitate of titanium dioxide formed immediately. Precipitate was washed with deionized water several times, put on the ice bath, and under the vigorous stirring 10 mL of hydrogen peroxide were added dropwise. Then the pH value was adjusted to 9.5 with diluted aqueous ammonia, volume adjusted to 100 mL. The transparent green solution of pe-roxotitanate complex was formed. Separately solution of 10 mmol (2.2 mL) TEOS in 97.8 mL of propanol was prepared and poured into the aqueous peroxotitanate solution. The solution immediately turned turbid due to formation of colloid particles of mixed oxide SiO2-TiO2. The mixture was left for stirring for 24 hours and then washed and dried. In the case of pure TiO2 particles preparation solution of TEOS in propanol was changed to pure propanol.

Procedure of surface area enhancement was held via the reflux procedure; dried particles were put into the water-ethanol solution with 1:1 ratio and 60 mL volume, the pH value of solution adjusted to 5 by diluted HCl. Then the solution was subjected to reflux procedure during 24 hours. Afterwards the precipitate was washed, dried and calcined at 400 °C and 700 °C during 1 hour. A piece of both pure TiO2 and composite SiO2-TiO2 was left uncalcined and was subjected to washing in the Soxlet apparatus with CHCl3 during 6 hours in order to check the performance of uncalcined support for the catalyst.

Grafting of amino group to substrates For grafting of APTMS to the inorganic substrate the literature sources offer different conditions: gas phase, liquid, supercritical conditions, various solvents, temperatures, catalysts, various ways of substrate preparations. The most widely used solvent for this reaction is dry toluene - because it is nonpolar enough to exclude the interaction with the surface hy-droxyls, it dissolves APTMS pretty well and it boils at rather high temperature. Other solvents may be used: hexane, methanol, ethanol or toluene with the water addition. If the reaction media contains water the grafting consists of 2 parallel reactions: hydrolysis of alkoxy group and condensation of the emerging hydroxyl groups of APTMS with the surface hydroxyl groups of the substrate or with the hydroxyl groups of the neighbouring APTMS. In this case a multilayer cover of the substrate with APTMS forms. Otherwise, when the solution does not contain water, alkoxy groups react directly with the surface hy-droxyls with the alcohol elimination. The absence of water leads to the monolayer of grafted silane. Steric factors are also studied in the literature. As we have three functional alkoxy groups per a reacting molecule we would expect 1, 2 or 3 bonds of each silane formed with the surface, but in the case of steric factors 3 bonded silanes were not detected - only 1 or 2 - bonded, which was verified by the means of NMR [15], etc. Other bonds are formed with the neighboring silane. Condensation of the neighbouring alkoxy groups of the already grafted silanes also takes place - this forms firm and solid Si-O-Si bonds. Catalytic effect is related to amino groups [16]. Scheme of APTMS grafting is on the Fig. 1

Fig. 1. Scheme of APTMS grafting to surface hydroxyl groups of substrates

Theoretical quantity of APTMS needed for the reaction may be calculated from the surface density of hydroxyl groups. The data of hydroxyl concentration on thermally treated silicas are accessible. The surface density of the silanol groups on silica is known to be not firmly dependent on the source of silica, the initial density of fully hydroxylated silica is known to be 4.2 - 5.7 nm-2, after treatment in vacuum at 200 °C all silanol groups are kept intact , after treatment at 400 °C the surface density of silanols is about 2.5 units per nm-2 and after treatment at 700 °C isolated hydroxyls are still present and the density is about 1.1 nm-2 [17]. We suppose that the density of silanol groups on the surface of composite SiO2-TiO2 and pure TiO2 is approximately the same. Excessive calculated quantity of APTMS has been accepted to be 50 % (w/w) to the weight of the substrate . Eight substrates were considered for the grafting procedure. Specifications are presented in the table 1.

Before the grafting procedure samples should be properly treated to remove all hindering compounds from the surface of the samples. As it was already mentioned, we used three different pretreat-ment ways for porous samples before APTMS grafting: washing on the Soxlet apparatus with CHCl3 for 6 hours, calcination at 400 °C for 1 hour, and calcination at 700 °C for 1 hour. Non-porous samples were also subjected to APTMS grafting after calcinations at 400 °C during 1 hour. After this step all samples were degassed in high vacuum for 1 hour at 100 °C to remove the hindering molecules from the surface .

APTMS grafting itself proceeded through the following way: 200 mg of each substrate was put into 30 mL of dry toluene, under stirring 100 ul of APTMS (50 %w/w) was poured into the reaction media and installed under reflux condenser for 24 hours. After reaction ending the solution was decanted, the sample dried and washed in the Soxlet apparatus for 6 hours with the CHCl3.

Results and Discussion

Scanning Electron Microscopy Scanning electron microscope observation shows spherical morphology of both pure TiO2 and composite SiO2-TiO2 oxide (Fig. 2).

The obvious difference between ungrafted pure TiO2 and composite SiO2-TiO2 is rougher surface of the former. The rough surface of TiO2 spheres consists of smaller crystalline structures with sizes about several nanometers, which may be detected by the means of X-ray diffractometry [13, 14]. Voids between crystal particles were studied by the means of low-temperature nitrogen adsorption. It has been stated that these are mesopores [14]. On the contrary, the surface of composite oxide looks even at such magnification. For this material only micropores are detected by the means of low-temperature nitrogen adsorption [14]. This is in good correlation with low-temperature nitrogen adsorption data, where mesopores were only detected in inpure TiO2 after APTMS grafting. Microphotographs after APTMS grafting demonstrate capping of TiO2 pores. The surface of this material becomes smoother, while the surface of composite oxide does not change a lot and reveals the initial even character.

FTIR Investigation The FTIR spectra were recorded with KBr as a support for the sample. Resolution of spectra was set at 4 cm-1. The absorption peaks at wavelengths 2930 and 2864 cm-1 emerging after APTMS grafting are attributed to stretching vibration of C-H [18, 19] bonds. Quantitative estimation of grafted APTMS by calculation of the peak areas was presented in the literature [18], but in this case it is restricted due to the wide absorption band of O-H bonds at 2800-3700 cm-1, which overlap with the C-H bond absorption band. As pure TiO2 has weak absorption at 1000-1200 cm-1, we can see the emerging peaks at 1032 cm-1 and 1129 cm-1, which correspond to absorption of the Si-O bonds of grafted APTMS [20]. As the SiO2-TiO2 samples already have the Si-O bonds, the region of 10001200 cm-1 does not change after grafting of APTMS. The band at about 1650 cm-1 is attributed to the O-H bonds of inner structure [21], which does not disappear even after calcinations at 400 °C. The weak adsorption band at 1565 cm-1 corresponds to the bending vibration of the N-H [22-24] bonds. The N-H bond also has weak absorption band at about 3250 cm-1, which corresponds to its stretching vibrations [20]. Low-intensity band at 1217 cm-1 is caused by absorption of the C-N bond [19] (Fig. 3). The FTIR spectra clearly show the presence of grafted aminopropyl groups on the substrate surface.

The FTIR spectra of the composite material reveal additional peaks at 1045 cm1, 458 cm l, which are initially present because of the Si-O bond absorption [14]. The peak at 952 cm-1 corresponds to the Si-O-Ti bonds of the substrate matrix [13]. High optical density of the composite substrate in region 1000-1200 cm-1 does not allow capturing the Si-O and C-N bonds of APTMS, while the appearance of the C-H and N-H bonds absorption can easily be detected. Wavelengths of the O-H and N-H bonds are slightly shifted to lower wavelengths, namely 1627 and 1519 cm-1, respectively (Fig. 4).

Thermal Analysis Thermogravimetry is the most widely used way to evaluate the quantity of grafted organic moieties because it is simple to perform and gives accurate results [25-28]. Thermal analysis proceeded in the inert atmosphere (Ar) for better separation at different stages of weight loss. Heating rate was set at 10 K/min, heating was held up to 1000 °C.

Typical graphs of thermal analysis for Ti02 with grafted APTMS are presented in Fig. 5.

Samples with grafted APTMS pass through two stages of weight loss under heating. The first stage lasts from room temperature up to 250 °C and corresponds to the loss of physisorbed water and other

compounds. The second stage - from 250 to 1000 °C - corresponds to the chemisorbed organic moieties degradation. Degradation of organic groups proceeds through two stages (DSC curve, DTG curve). The first stage lasts from 250 to 400 °C and corresponds to organic chain degradation and rupture of the C-H bonds, the amino groups also degrade through this process. The second stage - from 400 to 1000 °C -corresponds to loss of carbon, which appears through organic moieties degradation.

For composite SiO2-TiO2 material the weight loss shifts to higher temperatures, and the exothermic peaks are twin. Positive thermal effect for composite SiO2-TiO2 material at 670 °C corresponds to the TiO2 crystallization. For pure TiO2 this peak is absent because of its initial crystallinity (Fig. 6).

For aminomodified material the stage of weight loss from to 250 to 1000 °C corresponds to grafted aminopropyl moieties loss. While for the non-modifed one it corresponds to degradation of hydroxyl groups and, in a lesser degree, of the remaining solvent or precursor. Therefore the difference of weight loss from to 250 to 1000 °C between these two samples is assumed to be the content of aminopropyl groups. The results are presented lower. As expected, grafting capacities of non porous materials are lower than those of the porous one. For the composite substrate this difference is approximately 4-fold, while for TiO2 this difference is much less. Treatment procedure has minor effect on the amount of aminopropyl groups content. Values are similar for all 3 types of pretreatment. Both composite SiO2-TiO2 and pure TiO2 materials have similar values of aminopropyl groups after grafting (Table 2).

Another conclusion is that the quantity of grafted APTMS depends non- linearly on the specific surface area of the substrate. For example, when the surface area of porous and non porous substrates differs by 10-20 times, the quantity of grafted APTMS differs only by 1.5-4 times. Quantities of grafted aminopropyl groups are presented in Fig. 7.

Thermal Stability of Organic Groups In order to investigate thermal stability of organic functional groups, sample T 400 Amino was calcined at 250 °C and 400 °C in air atmosphere during 1 hour -according to stages of weight loss on thermal analysis. Equal masses (2 mg) of sample T 400 Amino before calcination, after calcination at 250 °C in air, after calcination at 400 °C in air were mixed with 20 mg of KBr to get the spectra (Fig. 8).

Fig. 8. Thermal stability of aminopropyl groups: 1 - T 400 Amino 400 °C; 2 - T 400 Amino 250 °C; 3 - 2 - T 400 Amino

After calcination at 250 °C the FTIR pattern is completely similar to the non-calcined sample: the characteristic peaks at 2928, 2855, 1563 cm-1 have the same intensities - meaning that aminopropyl groups are stable up to 250 °C. After calcination at 400 °C the adsorption bands at 2928, 2855 cm-1, and 1563 cm-1 , corresponding to C-H and N-H absorption, respectively, disappear - relating to degradation of the organic chain, with the Si-O bonds at wavelengths 1000-1200 cm-1 still present. This says that the degradation of organic moieties proceeds from 250 °C to 1000 °C through 2 stages: the 250-400 °C degradation of organic chain, the 400-1000 °C carbon residues loss.

Surface Area Characteristics of Materials after APTMS Grafting After APTMS grafting all samples have negligible microporosity. Taking into account the most abundant size of micropores equaling 0.5 nm [14] and the length of APTMS molecule equaling 0.7 nm, we suppose that APTMS does not penetrate into the micropores but grafts to the external surface and completely blocks the orifice of micropores even for the small molecules of N2 with 0.3 nm size. Values are presented in Table 3.

Despite the micropore blocking, 2 samples still have mesopores even after APTMS grafting. These are T 400 Amino and T 700 Amino. Medium pore sizes of mesopores after APTMS grafting are: 4 nm for T400 Amino and 10 nm for T 700 Amino (Fig. 9). The preparation procedure allows fine tuning for the pore sizes of resulting material, as well as for the specific surface area. These properties are very important in such fields as catalysis and sorption.

The peroxo method was used for the preparation of spherical nanoparticles of TiO2 and composite SiO2-TiO2 oxides which were subsequently thermally treated at 400 °C and 700 °C or just left to dry without calcination. These substrates were modified with aminopropyl groups, grafted to the surface hydroxyl groups of substrates. Grafting of amino groups was verified by the means of infrared spectros-copy. The quantities of grafted aminopropyl groups were measured by the thermal analysis and did not

change significantly with the temperature of thermal pretreatment. The values are 6-8 % m/m, which is approximately equal to 1 mmol of amino groups per gram of the catalyst. Despite the low specific surface area of materials after APTMS grafting two of them still have mesopores. These are the TiO2 spheres, calcined at 400 °C and 700 °C prior to APTMS grafting. Pore size distribution in these materials is pretty narrow and allows us to apply the obtained catalysts for the selective reactions between reagents with stated sizes.

МОДИФИЦИРОВАНИЕ АМИНОГРУППАМИ СФЕРИЧЕСКИХ ЧАСТИЦ SiO2-TiÜ2 И TiÜ2, ПОЛУЧЕННЫХ ПЕРОКСИДНЫМ МЕТОДОМ

Серии пористых композитных оксидов SiO2-TiO2 и чистого ТЮ2 со сферической морфологией частиц были получены пероксидным методом, далее они были использованы в качестве подложек для катализаторов. Аминопропилтриметоксисилан (АПТМС) был присоединен к поверхности подложки в строго безводной реакционной среде, что приводит к тому, что аминогруппы присоединяются ковалентно к поверхности подложки. Процедура присоединения аминопропилтриметоксисилана является несложной и может быть применена также для других органических соединений, имеющих различные функциональные группы. Для изучения процесса термической обработки подложки были прокалены при различных температурах перед тем, как были использованы в реакциях присоединения органических молекул, содержащих функциональные группы. Было установлено, что количество органических молекул, присоединяющихся к поверхности подложки в ходе реакции различается незначительно в зависимости от температуры обработки подложки, это указывает на то, что в реакцию с органическими молекулами вступают главным образом изолированные гидроксильные группы, наиболее стабильные из всех гидроксильных групп, остающиеся на поверхности даже после прокаливания при 700 °С. Присоединенные аминогруппы будут иметь применение в качестве каталитических центров в различных реакциях органической химии, таких как ацилирование аминов и спиртов, полимеризация лактонов с гидро-ксильными группами, изомеризация ненасыщенных углеводородов, альдольная конденсация, реакции Дильса-Альдера, Михаэля, Невенагеля и т. д. Механизм активирования реакций аминогруппами включает перенос электронной плотности к реагирующей молекуле и формирование переходного комплекса. В то время как наиболее широко распространенные основные катализаторы являются аминами в агрегатном состоянии жидкости и представляют собой гомогенные катализаторы существует потребность в формировании гетерогенного катализатор. Гетерогенный катализ позволяет избежать загрязнения продуктов реакции исходными реагентами, а также позволяет осуществлять регенерацию катализатора и его многократное использование. Полученные катализаторы имеют высокое содержание присоединенных аминогрупп (1 ммоль/г) с учетом их локализации на поверхности материала.

Ключевые слова: пероксидный метод, SiO2, ТЮ2, АПТМС, амино группы, основный катализ.
