Synthesis and physicochemical characteristics of polymolybdenum(VI) phenylsiloxanes by means of different methods

Interaction of molybdenyl(VI) bis(acetylacetonate) with polyphenylsiloxane in xylene and under mechanochemical activation conditions has been investigated. The interaction in solution proceeds with splitting of the siloxane bond and formation of polymolybdenum(VI) phenylsiloxane with different silicon/metal ratios. The fractions with the silicon/metal ratio < 2 are characterized with high degree of crystallinity and low solubility, whereas those with the ratio > 2 are amorphous. The interaction of the above reagents under mechanical activation conditions proceeds with the formation of soluble polymers similar to those obtained in a solution with the silicon/molybdenum ratio equal to 2.6. The crystal chemistry parameters of the fraction obtained in solution with the ratio Si/Mo equals to 1:2 have been calculated on the basis of the X-ray diffraction analysis data using the Debye–Shearer equation. It has been demonstrated that the chain cross section found using the Miller–Boyer method coincides with that calculated geometrically on the basis of literature data on bond lengths and angles. It is shown that the interaction of molybdenyl(VI) bis(acetylacetonate) with polyphenylsiloxane takes place in solution more deeply than under the conditions of mechanochemical activation and is accompanied by the process of separation siloxanes connection. This leads to the formation of a fraction with smaller ratio of substances than the initial ratio.
