  • Patent number: 8003815
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method of preparing a cross-condensed compound of an amino-acid derivative and (aminoalkyl)trialkoxysilane using microwave, including: irradiating and heating an amino-acid derivative and (aminoalkyl)trialkoxysilane in a microwave reactor to obtain a reaction product (step 1); and refining the reaction product obtained in the step 1 by removing an unreacted solid material from the reaction product and then leaving the reaction product at room temperature under vacuum to remove excess (aminoalkyl)trialkoxysilane therefrom (step 2). According to the method, since a cross-condensation reaction is performed using microwave, unlike a conventional condensation reaction, economic efficiency is increased due to no catalyst, short reaction time and no solvent. Further, the yield and selectivity of products is increased, and the condensation reaction can be environment-friendly performed because a solvent which can badly influence the environment may not be used.

    Abstract: The invention is based on the discovery that a remarkable improvement in the performance of maleimide thermosets can be achieved by incorporating amide-extended maleimides into an adhesive formulation. Amide-extended maleimides described herein can be used to toughen bismaleimide thermosetting materials without sacrificing any thermal stability. Amide-extended maleimides are readily prepared by reacting a bismaleimide with an appropriate amine via the well-known Michael addition reaction. Acylation of the resulting secondary amines provides the amide-extended maleimide. The acylating agent can also be used to introduce polymerizable functional groups into the backbones of these thermoset monomers. Amide-extended acrylate and methacrylate monomers can also be prepared.

Substrates such as microparticles having functionalized silicon compounds attached thereto are produced by introducing at least one carboxyl group directly by silanating a carboxylated silane compound to the surface of a microparticle. In a further aspect of the invention, the silane compound is a dipodal carboxylated silane.

  • Publication number: 20110094966
    Abstract: New chiral stationary phases (CSPs) based on chiral selectors covalently bound on a solid support were prepared. Chiral selectors were obtained from enantiomerically pure aromatic amines and 3,5-dinitrobenzoic acid and then linked to the support surface through the allylic double bond. Such obtained materials allow enantioseparation of racemates or enantiomerically enriched compounds. These chiral stationary phases can be used as fillings in chromatographic columns for enantiomer separation of naproxen type drugs and other similar non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID) by means of high performance liquid chromatography on both the analytical and preparative scale.
