Acetic Anhydride as an Oxygen Donor in the Non‐Hydrolytic Sol–Gel Synthesis of Mesoporous TiO2 with High Electrochemical Lithium Storage Performances

Abstract: An original, halide‐free non‐hydrolytic sol–gel route to mesoporous anatase TiO2 with hierarchical porosity and high specific surface area is reported. This route is based on the reaction at 200 °C of titanium(IV) isopropoxide with acetic anhydride, in the absence of a catalyst or solvent. NMR spectroscopic studies indicate that this method provides an efficient, truly non‐hydrolytic and aprotic route to TiO2. Formation of the oxide involves successive acetoxylation and condensation reactions, both with ester … Show more

“…At the micron scale, the samples present two different morphologies depending on the precursor and O‐donor: in ZNP‐Ac 2 O, ZCl‐EtOH or ZCL‐DIPE samples the nanocrystals form shapeless, very large aggregates, while in ZNP‐MPK, ZNP‐ACE and ZNP‐AcPh they build spherical secondary particles, 1 to 5 μm in size. Similar hierarchical morphologies have already been reported for TiO 2 ‐based materials prepared by NHSG using DIPE or Ac 2 O O‐donors [41, 42, 55] . As shown in Figure 6, these two types of morphologies are already present in the xerogels, prior to calcination.…”

“…(4)] then condensation with ester elimination [Eq. (7)], as recently reported for the synthesis of TiO 2 ‐based materials from Ti(O i Pr) 4 and Ac 2 O [42, 43] . There is no trace of Ac 2 O, showing that the first step was complete.…”

“…Niederberger et al [16] synthesised anatase nanoparticles from the reaction between titanium tetrachloride and benzyl alcohol at 60°C or 100°C for 8 h followed by an aging for several days. Recently, Wang et al [17] described the synthesis of mesoporous TiO 2 by a reaction between Ti(O i Pr) 4 and acetic anhydride (Ac 2 O) at 200°C for 12 h. Many publications have described the synthesis of TiO 2 nanoparticles in solvent medium, but up to now only a few studies have focused on the in situ synthesis of particles by the NHSG process in a polymer matrix. Morselli et al [18] synthesised poly(methyl methacrylate)-TiO 2 nanocomposite by an in situ non-hydrolytic sol-gel reaction between titanium tetrachloride and benzyl alcohol.…”
