Abstract

The effectiveness of ultrasound irradiation for simultaneous synthesis of structures analogous to `core-shell' vesicles was investigated. The sonochemical reaction of iron pentacarbonyl and chlorotrimethylsilane in decaline solution was studied to produce micrometer dimension vesicles containing monodispersed spindles. X-ray diffraction analysis and selected area electron diffraction were performed to characterize the chemical nature of the spindles. A Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy study of the products exhibited peaks at 7.9 and 12.5 μm that were generally assigned to symmetric deformation of methyl group on silicon and S-C stretching vibrations in dimethylpolysiloxane polymers.
