Modified silica nanoparticles with an Aminonaphthoquinone

The synthesis and characterization of silica nanoparticles (NPs) covalently modified with an aminonaphthoquinone are reported. The aminopropylsilicagelnaphthoquinone (APSGNQ) was obtained by nucleophilic substitution of 2-methoxy-1,4-naphthoquinone with aminopropylsilicalgel (APSG) NPs. Solid state 13C and 29Si nuclear magnetic resonance spectra confirmed that the naphthoquinone is covalently bonded to APSG. Due to the solubility of APSGNQ in common organic solvents, solution ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy was used to determine the amount of naphthoquinone on the NPs surface (0.56 mmol of incorporated naphthoquinone per gram of APSGNQ) by comparison with the spectrum of 2-aminobutyl-1,4-naphthoquinone (ABNQ). Elemental analysis indicated that about 8% of the surface propylamine remained unreacted in APSGNQ. These multifunctional silica NPs have potential in medical applications.
