Materials for depollution based on the model of manganese dioxygenases

The objective of this work is the synthesis of model material for manganese dioxygenase which is an enzyme that oxidizes catechol-like substrates with dioxygen. Our strategy comprises three main steps that form the different chapters of this thesis: - Synthesis and characterization of manganese(II) complexes with tridentate ligands. - Optimization of a microwave-assisted synthesis of a mesoporous silica. - Functionalization of these materials and complex grafting, as well as preliminary catalytic tests. The ligands used are tertiary amines containing an alkyne arm and two coordinating arms with functions such as pyridine, imidazole or carboxylate. The complexes were crystallized and/or characterized by IR, EPR, SQUID and cyclic voltamperometry. Microwave synthesis, based on the conditions of classical hydrothermal synthesis, allowed us to reduce the synthesis time from one day to two hours. The quality of these new materials was verified by IR, TGA, BET and powder XRD. These materials are then bi-functionalized using a molecular stencil patterning mehod with a an azide function for complex grafting via click chemistry and a function pyridine or trimethylsilyl to control the coordinating ability of the metal environment. These complexes and materials are active in catechol oxidation with O2.
