New cyclotetrasiloxanes bearing sila-alkyl substituted side chains and their applications as templates for gold nanowires
New sila-alkyl substituted cyclotetrasiloxanes, [RMeSiCH CH(Me)SiO] [R = Ph(1), 2-thienyl(2), 2-furyl(3)] have been synthesized by a hydrosilylation reaction between 2,4,6,8-tetramethyl-2,4,6,8-tetravinylcyclotetrasiloxane, (D )...
