INTRODUCTION

The preparation of ceramic materials and glasses by hydrolysis and condensation of silicon alkoddes, the so called sol-gel method, has recmdy attracted considerable interest [1,2]. In this process a silicon alkodde, for example tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) or tetramethoxysilane (TMOS), and a cenam amount of water is dissolved in an alcohol in the presence of a catalyst and allowed to react. In acidic solutions, the polymerization of the silicon alkodde produces s transparent and porous gel formed by a polymeric network with a frame work of siloxane bonds (Si-Cb Si), leaving some 6ee hydroxyl groups. The initial step of this process is hydrolysis, which can be described by an overall eq. I: S(OR)A+ nH2O -------> %(OR).,

followed by a condensation yielding an alcohol(2): Si-OR + HO-Si ------>Si-O-Si + ROH

and / or a condensation, which results in the formation ofwater (3): Si-OH + HO-Si -------> Si-O-Si +H20

(3)

In eqs. (2) and (3) the symbols Si-OR and SCOH stand for alkoxy or bydroxy

derivatives of monomers. Analogous steps are followed in the polymerization proccsr. The kinetics of the hydrolysis and condensation of alkoddes with water has been investigated under varying conditions m the presence of numerous additives [3- 51 with

the aim to obtain optimum conditions for hydrolysis and condensation in production i materials with chosen properties. Reactions were studied mostly by using " ~ NMR (681 utilizing the changes in chemical shift attributed to silicon atoms substituted by

diBerent groups or by chromatography of water and alcohols [ 9, 10 1.


To avoid the addition of water resulting in formation of a separated phase. Sjoblom et a1.[11-141 introduced the use of hydrated metal salts, soluble in alcohol, as sources of water in the hydrobic process (I). Reaction rate conaants of hydrolysis and condensation in the presence of hydrates were compared to those obtained in the absence of metal salts. In this communication the rates of hydrolysis and condensation have been

studied in the presence of an organic hydrate, using chloral hydrate as an example. An application of this m d y to prepare glasses containing organic compounds is under inveaigation.

EXPEWENTAL Materials 98% Tetraethoxysilane was obiained from Aldrich, (Milwaukee). 99% chloral

monohydrate and 37% hydrochloric acid (97%)

were obtained from J.D Baker

(Phillipsburg, NJ). 200 proof ethanol was obtained 6om Phannco ( Milwaukee). Samples Reparation In a 10 -mmNMR tube, TEOS (75% wlw) in absolute ethanol containiog about I wt.% chromium pentanedionate (paramagnetic relaxing agent), was mixed with

ethanolic solution of the chloral hydrate(75% wlw), in a mole ratio 112, to obtain a transparent solution in the shonea possible time. The fmal concentration were 27.2 %

used to measure 'PH",using radiometer glass electrode type 202 after standardization using aqueous standard of pH 4 and 7, and an aqueous saturated calomel electrode.

NMR Spectra The hydrolysis, condensation, and gelstion reaction were monilored at room temperature with % spectra obtained by a GF AF- 250 NMR equipped wah data acquisition on an B M NR Tbe spears were acquired with a pulse width of 30 mg and a pulse delay of 20 s. Tlqs, spm-lanice relaxation times were of the order of 3 s for TEOS and smaller for the hydrolyzed species. TEOSIethanol solution was used as an enema1 standard. Tbe scan times were increased to obtain an acceptable ratio of sgnal to noise. All spectra were normalized and treated quantitatively for Merent silicon moieties by measuring the intensity of the corresponding NMR signals.

RESULTS

Kinetics of the reactions ofthe silanol SiOEth (TEOS) in the presence of chloral hydrate as the predominant source of water was investigated in two solutions mixtures. Solution A, contaioing of 27.2 % wlw TEOS, 25 % wlw ethanol and 47.8 % wlw chloral hydrate with apparent "pH " 4.0 and solution B, containing of 26.95 % wlw TEOS, 24.8 % W/Wethanol and 47.5 % wlw chloral hydrate, 0.5 % wlw hydrochloric acid, and 0.25 %

The trimcr (Figure 4, symbol A) is formed afler an even longer induction period. It seems that the trimer is formed in a reaction competitive rather than wnserrutive to the dimer formation. The hydrolysis of the parent species Si(OEt), in the acidified solution B (Figure 5 ) occurs considerably faster than the corresponding reaction in the uobullered solution A. Under thew conditions, the monomeric species SiOETh(0H) is formed as an intermediate.

similarly as the dimer bearing a single OH group. Concentration of the dimers, bearing a single OH group or a single hydroxy groups on each of the Si atoms seems to reach a steady state.

The t i m e dependences of NMR peaks corresponding to Q ~ and ' :Q (Fig. 3) indicate that the species Si(0Erh OH occurs under conditions of hydrolysis of reaction mixture A as a aable intermediate. On the other hand, the absence of peaks corresponding to Qd and

sequence is similar to that found for consecutive hydrolyses of acnals, ketals, and orthoesters [18,19]. The hydrolyses of silicon alkoddes were carried out [I71 in unbufTered system but ifthe hydrogen ion is regenerated in catalyzed reaction, a complicating change in activity of hydrogen.ions in the course of readion may not occur.

These authors [I71 also concluded that the hydrolysis of Si (OEt), and Si(OEth(0H) are practically h e r s i b l c , whereas these of Si ( O E t h ( 0 Q and Si(0EtXOHh arc reversible. at least at the presence of a large excess of EtOtL To interpret the values of ( k ' ~ +)i the mechanism of the acid catalyzed hydrolysis of silicon alkoxides will be discused fim, for which three ahematives have been considered. The firs two invoke formation of a species with a pentacoordinated silicon (201, the laa one of r &coordinated one [21]. as some evidence exists for the existence of both types of mch species, at leaa as intermediates.

These rypes of processes are supported by the decrease in the reaction rate in &O [26], at least for same optically active monomers by inversion 123, 26-28], by the effed of

pressure [29-311, and by the dependence of rate constants on the number of O H groups on silicon 1171. Additional proof is available 6om deviations born lmear k, "b = [H7 plots (Figure 3, [ref 171).

There is no strong evidence for such mechanisq wen when formation of a silylium ion 1211 cannot be completely excluded. This Werence between the alkoxy derivatives of carbon and silicon urn be

interpreted as due to the a b i i of silicon to expand its valence and form a pentacoordinatcd intermediate compared to Limited tendency of carbon to expand its valence above eight electrons. Greater a5nity of silicon to nucleophilic attacks, compared to carbon, is also reflected by the base (nucleophilic) catalyzed hydrolysis of R,SiOH, compared to inactivity of orthoesters (R'C(0Rh) and ketals (R'dJORh)) to base catalysis [IS]. Thus for the majority of silicon alkoddes a mechanim following (9) and (10) seems to predominate and is assmod to operate under conditions used in this study. In generahtion of such concludon we should be, nevenheleq aware of the p o s s i i that the reaction mechanism may vary with the structure of Ihe substrate. Such dependence has been s h o w 133, 341 for esters of phosphoric acid, where different mechanisms operate for momo-, di-, and trialkyleaers and sometimes different for allryl and pryl derivatives. Chloral hydrate acts in aqueous solutions as a very weak acid with a pKa 10.04 corresponding to reaction (13):

chloral hydrate, (where the replacement of some ofthe OH groups by OEt groups cannot be excluded), indicates Larger acid strength in the used medium ("pKa" about 7.6). But the


acidity of chloral was Pltficient to yield a rate of hydrolysis suitable for a kinetic'mdy under conditions, h e r e the rate of condenwion was negligible.

In the initial sages of the reaction the decrease of the signal proponional to the concentration of the saning material (Q:

) with time follows first order kinetics, as proved

by plotting In Q~Oas a b c t i o n of time. As mentioned above, under these conditions the firs step of the hydrolysis of SiOEt). is rate-determining. For periods shorter than about 1.5 h

the sum of concentrations of reactant intermediates and products remains practically equal to the initial concentntion of TEOS. Dcvistions fiom the linear plot of in Q: = 81) at longer time intervals indicate the possibility of

pmicipation of Si(OEt)r in some

condensation reactions leading to the formation of oligomers. The indunion period in the formation of oligomers indicates that these reactions invoked one or more of the hydrolyzd monomers SiOEth, (OH),

Shorter induction

period in the formation of the species QI' than that of the species QI' (Figure 4) can kther be due to a lower activation energy of that reaction (13) than of (14). which is in agreement with the increase in rate of hydrolysis with increasing number of OH groups on a silicon atom mentioned above: Si(0Eth ( O W + HOR -------> Si(OEt)(OR) ( O W + EtOH

(13b)

S i O E t h (OH) + HOR ------->SiOEth (OR) (OH) + EtOH

(14)

or due to a rapid hydrolysis ofthe dimer Qt' (15):

RO- SiOEt), (OH) + H20---->

RO-Si (OEth (0%

+ EtOH

(15)

Still faster hydrolysis yielding Q', would be expected. It was, nevertheless impossile to follow this reaction due to a small difference betwan chemical shifts of Q,' and QoO. Even longer induction periods observed for the formation ofthe uimers Q' and


Q' (Figure 4) are conrisent with their formation liom dimers.

In acidified solutions (Figure 5) both hydrolysis and condenrations occur hster

than m the unbuffered system and the formation of the dimer Q I 1 follows most probably the reaction (16): 2 Si(0Eth (OH) -------> (OEth Si-O-Si (OEth (OH) + H20

(16)

as the reaction (14) yielding Q? is slower than the reaction yielding QI1(Figure5): SiOEth (OH) + Si0Et)a------> (OEth Si-OSi (OEt), + HzO

(17)

It is not obvious why formation of Q>O m reaction (17) shows an induction period absent m the formation of Q,'in reaction (16). Reported studies represent a preliminary report on kinetics of this q p e of reaction to be followed by a more detailed mvesligations mvohing determination of EtOH (

"

C NMR, GLC), water ( 'H NMR, GLC) and oligomers (gel permeation

chromatography), as well as varying the acidity of the reaction miaure.

CONCLUSIONS T l ~ ewater participating in the hydrolysis, has been in the past either a component ofthe solvent [b-8 ] or has been added as a bydrate ofthe metal salt [I 1-15]. Both of these approaches show limitations, mentioned in the luuoduction. lu particular using the latter approach, inorganic components become a pan of the ghss and can change its properties. In this contniution we bave demonstrated the possibility

of using a hydrate of an organic compound as the source of the needed water. In chloral hydrate CCI ,CH(O-

Hz0 the water is present both covalentiy bound and as

crystal water. To distinguish between contniutions of these two types of water, investigations using isotopicaUy tagged chloral molecules are under way. Also the

involving other organic molecules containing only covalentiy bound water or

only crystal water are planned
