Received June 26, 2007 Abstract—Adsorption interactions of trans-stilbene and its hydroxy and methoxy derivatives with the surface of nanodispersed SiO2 aerogel were studied by diffuse-reflection FTIR spectroscopy. Stilbenes were found to adsorb at the aerosil via hydrogen bonding to silanol OH groups. The deepest modification of these groups was produced by 3,5,4'-trihydroxystilbene (resveratrol). Although the stilbenes adsorbed reversibly, the absorption spectra of the starting and desorbed resveratrol proved to differ. UV irradiation ( = 285–305 nm) of adsorbed hydroxystilbenes changed the composition and properties of adsorbed layers. The changes include breaking of the hydrogen bonds between the hydroxystilbene molecules and the surface, destruction of the stilbenes involving cleavage of the double bond of the ethene fragment, dimerization, oxidation, and transformation into other compounds. The intensity of heterogeneous photolysis depends on the number and composition of functional groups in trans-stilbenes. PACS numbers: 68.43.-h DOI: 10.1134/S0033173208040061
