Seçkin, TÇetinkaya, BÖzdemir, I2024-08-042024-08-0420000170-0839https://doi.org/10.1007/s002890050572https://hdl.handle.net/11616/93211The preparation and the measurement of some properties of Ruthenium (II) coordinated 3-4,5-dihyroimidazol-1-yl-propyltriethoxysilane have been achieved. The organosilicon precursor chosen for this study was N-aminoethyl-3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane converted to 3-4,5-dihydroimidazol-1-yl-propyltriethoxysilane that was then coordinated with ruthenium (II). FT-IR spectroscopy, DTA and TGA analysis were used to characterize the bond formation during gelation, aging and drying of gels. The prepared aerogels are low-density 0.19-0.30 g/cm(3) amorphous materials with surface areas of 405 to 530 m(2)/g. The resulting aerogel catalysts exhibited unique structural and chemical properties.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessInorganic MatricesMetal-ComplexesAlkoxidesRutheniumParticlesSol-gel synthesis of Ru(II) complex of 3-4,5-dihydroimidazol-1-yl-propyltriethoxysilane aerogels and xerogelsArticle441475310.1007/s0028900505722-s2.0-0033653449N/AWOS:000085707400007Q2
