Ordered organo–silica–surfactant mesophases containing
covalently linked functionalized moieties are prepared with MCM-41-type
architectures by template-directed co-condensation of tetraethoxysilane
and organotrialkoxysilanes (RO)3Si–R′ [R = Me, Et;
R′ = (CH2)3SH,
(CH2)3NH2,
(CH2)3OCH2CH(O)CH2,
(CH2)3NCHNCH2C
H2
or CH2CHCH2].
