Two New Organic Supramolecular Complexes Based on 2,3,6,7-Tetrahydroxyl-9,10-dimethyl-9,10-dihydro-9,10-ethanoanthracene and 4,4′-Bipyridine or 4,4′-Bipyridinylethane

Two new organic supramolecular cocrystal complexes C18H18O4·C10H8N2（I） and C18H18O4·C12H10N2（II）（C18H18O4 = 2,3,6,7-tetrahydroxyl-9,10-dimethyl-9,10-dihydro-9,10-ethanoanthracene（LH4）, C10H8N2 = 4,4＇-bipyridine（bpy） and C12H10N2 = 4,4＇-bipyridinylethane（bpe）） have been obtained by mixing LH4 with corresponding bpy or bpe ligand. The two complexes have been determined by X-ray crystal structure analysis, elemental analysis and IR analysis. Compound I crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma with a = 9.7078（4）, b = 22.4974（10）, c = 20.6272（9） V = 4505.0（3）3, Mr = 454.51, Dc. = 1.340 g·cm^-3, μ = 0.09 mm-1, F（000） = 1920, Z = 8, R = 0.0503 and wR = 0.1360. Compound II crystallizes in monoclinic C2/c with a = 29.944（6）, b = 9.820（2）, c = 22.643（5） , V = 5048.4（18）3, Mr = 480.54, Dc. = 1.265 g cm^–3, μ = 0.084 mm^–1, F（000） = 2032, Z = 8, R = 0.0548 and wR = 0.1600. X-ray single-crystal structure analysis shows that two-dimensional（2D） layer supramolecular structures are formed through hydrogen bonds and π-π interactions in the two complexes. IR analysis also indicates that there are only associated hydroxyl groups in the two complexes.

Flame Retardant Finishing of Poly(ethylene terephthalate) Fabric with a Carbon Source Containing DOPO Derivative

9, 10-dihydro-9-oxa-10-phosphaphenanthrene-10-oxide( DOPO)-based flame retardant( DOPO-DOPC) which contains carbon source was used to improve the flame retardancy of poly( ethylene terephthalate)( PET) fabrics. The prepared DOPODOPC dispersion was applied onto PET fabrics via two kinds of processes,thermosol process and exhaustion process,and in the later using it alone or together with disperse dyes. The flame retardancy of PET fabrics was determined by limiting oxygen index( LOI) and vertical burning test. The results showed that DOPODOPC could obviously improve the flame retardancy of PET fabrics.The PET fabric treated by 60 g/L DOPO-DOPC dispersion via exhaustion process achieved an LOI value of 32. 3%,for example.The flame retardancy and dyeing performances showed that DOPODOPC dispersion could be used together with a part of disperse dyes in one bath. The thermal stability of DOPO-DOPC and the treated PET fabrics were investigated by thermogravimetric analysis( TGA). And the flame retardant mechanism of DOPO-DOPC treated PET fabrics was further investigated by pyrolysis-gas chromatography/mass spectrometry( Py-GC/MS), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy( FTIR) and scanning electron microscopy( SEM).
