A newsworthy class of carboxylate and sulfonate esters of 1-acetylferroceneoxime has been demonstrated as non-ionic photoacid generators (PAGs). PAGs based on 1-acetylferroceneoxime were synthesized in good yields by simple treatment of 1-acetylferroceneoxime with various carboxylic and sulfonyl chlorides. Newly developed PAGs of 1-acetylferroceneoxime showed good absorbance >350 nm. On irradiation using UV light (≥365 nm), carboxylates and sulfonates of 1-acetyl ferroceneoxime in aqueous acetonitrile solvent underwent efficient homolytic cleavage of N-O bond, resulting in the generation of carboxylic and sulphonic acids, respectively, with high chemical and good quantum yields. Further, we demonstrated the application of our newly developed 1-acetylferroceneoxime-based PAGs for gelation of biopolymer alginate on UV irradiation. More interestingly, we synthesized a ferroceneoxime bound photoresponsive polymer, 1-acetylferroceneoxime-polycaprolactone (AFO-PCL), and demonstrated its controlled surface wettability and generation of patterned surfaces.

The present invention relates to the attachment of a polyethylene glycol (PEG) moiety to a target substrate. Processes for such attachment will be hereinafter referred to as "PEGylation" of the substrate. In particular, the present invention relates to a process for direct covalent PEGylation of a substrate, comprising the reaction of a halogenated PEG with the substrate wherein the halogen of the halogenated PEG acts as a leaving group in the PEGylation reaction.
