“…[55] Thenceforth, a huge number of PMOs were prepared with rigid organic groups such as benzene, [56,57] biphenyl, [58,59] or ethylene, [60] but less is known about PMOs functionalized in their framework by linear [51,[61][62][63][64][65] or cyclic polyamine, [43][44][45]66] or other chelating agents. [67] The few complexation studies of PMOs functionalized by polyamines, such as cyclam, [35,44,45,66] or linear amines [61,62,65,68] reveal very promising results. However, to date the tripodal TREN amine has never been incorporated into the framework of hybrid silicas.…”
