Research Abstract |
Some silylacetylene polymers having bulky chiral pinanyl groups were found to show good enantioselective permeabilities. We thought that the permselectivity was caused by the difference of diffusivity between R-isomer and S-isomer through "high-density chiral spaces" surrounding by the several bulky pinanyl groups. However, since the chiral spaces were very small and the mobility of bulky pinanyl groups was low, permeation rates were pretty low. This problem was solved by introducing "polysiloxane" units into membrane polymers. Direct modification of membranes by "sol-gel method" or hydrolysis of alkylsiloxy groups made membranes very brittle, and as a result these membranes were not able to be used for separation membranes. Therefore, it is important to modify the membranes without affecting other structures. In summary, we obtained the following three conclusions. 1)"High-density chiral spaces" is very important for high enantioselectivity. 2) "Polysiloxane" is effective for enhancing permeability. 3) "Sol-gel method" has to be controlled more precisely to maintain membrane strength.
