topics (OpenAlex): Organometallic Complex Synthesis and Catalysis; Carbon dioxide utilization in catalysis; Inorganic and Organometallic Chemistry
TL;DR: Calculations are used to show that esterification of TMCD and TPA will reduce and subsequently dehydrate a dimethyl tin oxide catalyst, becoming ligands on the now four-coordinate complex, a key first step in understanding polyester synthesis and avoiding undesirable side reactions during production.

Dependence of deposition method on the molecular structure and stability of organosilanes revealed from degrafting by tetrabutylammonium fluoride

PHYSICAL CHEMISTRY CHEMICAL PHYSICS, 22(2), 658–666.

By: J. Miles n, Y. Ko n & J. Genzer n

topics (OpenAlex): Molecular Junctions and Nanostructures; Polymer Surface Interaction Studies; Force Microscopy Techniques and Applications
TL;DR: Fast degrafting for organosilane SAMs deposited from the vapor phase is observed, indicating that SAMs prepared in this manner form more loosely packed arrays, with less in-plane connectivity, compared to their solution-deposited counterparts. (via Semantic Scholar)

Design and Fabrication of Wettability Gradients with Tunable Profiles through Degrafting Organosilane Layers from Silica Surfaces by Tetrabutylammonium Fluoride

LANGMUIR, 33(51), 14556–14564.

By: J. Miles n, S. Schlenker n, Y. Ko n, R. Patil n, B. Rao n & J. Genzer n

Contributors: J. Miles n, S. Schlenker n, Y. Ko n, R. Patil n, B. Rao n & J. Genzer n

topics (OpenAlex): Polymer Surface Interaction Studies; Surface Modification and Superhydrophobicity; Molecular Junctions and Nanostructures
TL;DR: The fabrication of surface wettability gradients on flat surfaces is described by a simple, two-step procedure that permits precise tuning of the gradient profile and observes a relatively homogeneous coverage of silane throughout the degrafting process, providing a much more uniform surface when compared to additive approaches of gradient formation.
