Abstract:Large‐pore mesoporous SBA‐15 materials were functionalized with dendritic bifunctional ligands to achieve efficient adsorption of nonsteroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) in aqueous solution mainly through a combination of anion‐exchange ability of quaternary ammonium cations and π‐π interaction capability of oxygen activated phenyls. The synthesis of such a dendritic ligand starts from propylamine on SBA‐15 followed by consecutive amine‐epoxy reactions with resorcinol diglycidyl ether (RDGE) and methylam… Show more
