Unprecedented Route to Amide-Functionalized Double-Decker Silsesquioxanes Using Carboxylic Acid Derivatives and a Hydrochloride Salt of Aminopropyl-DDSQ.

ABSTRACT: An easy, efficient, and scalable synthetic procedure is described to obtain novel amide-functionalized double-decker silsesquioxanes (DDSQs). The use of mild conditions of deprotection of the BOC group, which does not result to the cleavage of the cage-like silsesquioxane structure, is reported. This method leads to the so far undescribed hydrochloride salt of aminoalkyl-DDSQ. Interestingly, the cis/trans-isomerization of DDSQ molecules was observed during the reaction. The resulting compounds are characterized using multinuclear NMR (¹H, ¹³C, and ²⁹Si), MALDI-TOF, FT-IR, and elemental analysis. Moreover, crystal structures are reported for three trans DDSQs. The chloride salt of aminoalkyl derivative, obtained in one of the steps of th
