title: An original synthesis of highly ordered organosilica with a high content of thiol groups.
abstract: Well ordered bridged organosilica highly functionalised with disulfide groups were obtained by self-assembly of alpha,omega-bis(trimethoxysilyl)alkyldisulfide under hydrophilic conditions; the reduction of disulfide cores to SH groups gave rise to material having a high mercury ion adsorption capacity.
