Participants

Reaction Steps

4-phenylethynyl-N [3-triethoxysilylpropyl] phthalimide was synthesized as follows. 4-phenylethynyl phthalic anhydride (PEPA) was added to a round bottom flask containing sufficient tetrahydrafuran (THF) to dissolve the PEPA. An equimolar amount of 3-aminopropytriethoxy silane (3-APS) was added to the mixture at room temperature. The mixture was then heated over a steam bath until the THF mixture began to boil (T=65° C.). The heating continued for approximately 5 minutes. The solution was then removed from the steam bath and allowed to cool. The solvent was removed using a rotovaporator at 40° C. The resulting product is a thick, viscous, yellow (amber) liquid.
