The sol–gel polymerization of alkoxysilanes is a convenient and widely used method for the synthesis of silicon polymers and silicon–organic composites. The development of new sol–gel precursors is very important for obtaining new types of sol–gel products. New condensation polymer precursors containing consecutive silicon atoms—decaisopropoxycyclopentasilane (CPS) and dodecaethoxyneopentasilane (NPS)—were synthesized for the preparation of polysilane–polysiloxane material. The CPS and NPS xerogels were prepared by the sol–gel polymerization of CPS and NPS under three reaction conditions (acidic, basic and neutral). The CPS and NPS xerogels were characterized using N2 physisorption measurements (Brunauer–Emmett–Teller; BET and Brunauer-Joyner-Halenda; BJH), solid-state CP/MAS (cross-polarization/magic angle spinning) NMRs (nuclear magnetic resonances), TEM, and SEM. Their porosity and morphology were strongly affected by the structure of the precursors, and partial oxidative cleavage of Si-Si bonds occurred during the sol–gel process. The new condensation polymer precursors are expected to expand the choice of approaches for new polysilane–polysiloxane.

The X-ray crystal structure determination of bis[-(phenylcyanamido)bis(triphenylphosphine)copper(I)], [{Cu(PPh3)2(C6H5NCN)}2], (1) is reported. The complex has a centrosymmetric dimeric structure with the phenylcyanamide ligands bridging the copper atoms in a -1,3-fashion. The structure is compared with that of the 4-methylphenylcyanamido complex, [{Cu(PPh3)2(4-MeC6H4NCN)}2] (2), and the differences observed in the Cu–P bond lengths compared with changes in the solid state 31P cross-polarization magic-angle spinning (CPMAS) spectra of the two complexes.

Sodium valproate is a pharmaceutical with applications in the treatment of epilepsy, bipolar disorder, and other ailments. Sodium valproate can exist in many hydrated and acid-stabilized forms in the solid state, and it can be difficult to obtain precise structural information about many of these. Here, we present a 13C and 23Na solid-state NMR study of several forms of sodium valproate, only one of which has been previously structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. 23Na magic-angle spinning (MAS), double-rotation (DOR), and multiple-quantum magic-angle spinning (MQMAS) NMR spectra are shown to provide useful information on the number of molecules in the asymmetric unit, the local coordination geometry of the sodium cations, and the presence of amorphous phases. Two previously identified forms are shown to be highly similar, or identical, according to the 23Na NMR data. The utility of carrying out both DOR and MQMAS NMR experiments to identify all crystallographically unique sites is demonstrated. 13C cross-polarization MAS NMR spectra also provide complementary information on the number of molecules in the asymmetric unit and the crystallinity of the sample.
