ABSTRACTWe have already reported that copper and calcium dipivaloylmethanates [Cu(DPM)2 and Ca(DPM)2 ] reacts selectively and stoichiometrically with surface hydroxyl groups (OH) on SiO2. In order to clarify the structure of the adsorbed species and the origin of the reaction between M(DPM)2 (M=Cu and Ca) and OH groups, the surface adsorbed species are studied by infrared spectroscopy (IR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and the extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS). As a result, it was found that H from surface OH has moved into M(DPM)2 after the adsorption, where the four oxygen coordinated structure around Cu still exists in the adsorbed Cu(DPM)2. Introducing water vapor at 673 K to this surface results in the removal of ligand DPM from the adsorbed Cu(DPM)2. At 673 K, Cu atoms decomposed from the adsorbates aggregated on the surface. This fact supports that the interaction between the adsorbed Cu(DPM)2 and SiO2 surface is originated from that between the ligands and the surface.

The title complexes have been obtained by functionalization of silica with cyclopentadienylsilanes of the type Rx(CH3)3 - xSi(CH2)nC5H5 (x = 1-3, n = 0, 1, 3), trimethylsilylation of free surface hydroxyl groups, transformation of the bonded cyclopentadienyl group to the cyclopentadienyl anion, followed by coordination of (h5-cyclopentadienyl)trichlorotitanium. The effects of single steps of the above immobilization on texture of the support, the number of free hydroxyl groups, the coverage of the surface by cyclopentadienyl groups and the degree of their utilization in anchoring the titanium complex have been investigated. ESCA study has shown that the above anchoring leads to formation of the silica-supported bis(h5-cyclopentadienyl)dichlorotitanium(IV) complex.

Surface modification by phosphate efficiently improves the photocatalytic performance of BiPO4 for the degradation of methylene orange (MO), by enhancing the concentration of surface hydroxyl groups and improving its hydrophilicity.
