Tethering Organic Disulfides to Layered Silicates: A Versatile Strategy for Photo-Controllable Dynamic Chemistry and Functionalization

MDR Open Deposited

The dynamic covalent chemistry of molecular disulfides has been studied extensively in solution, but their reactivity when confined to nanospaces has not been investigated, nor has their application to functional nanomaterials been explored. In this study, symmetrical organic disulfides were tethered to the basal planes of synthetic mica by intercalation, confining photo-induced reactions to the interlayer as a result. This approach functionalizes the nanosheets to act as host for photo-induced disulfide-disulfide, disulfide-thiol, and disulfide-ene reactions, providing control and versatility for a wide variety of applications.
