Synthesis and mercury ion recognition of a novel azobenzene derivative bearing naphthalene units

A fluorescent probe for selective detection of mercury based on an azobenzene derivative bearing naphthalene units has been synthesised and its cation recognition abilities examined by UV-Vis and fluorescence spectroscopy. The fluorescent probe exhibits a

Light-controlled out-of-equilibrium assembly of cyclodextrins in an enzyme-mediated dynamic system

We show that the selective enzymatic synthesis of specific cyclodextrins can be modulated using light. We use enzyme-mediated dynamic combinatorial chemistry to generate a mixture of interconverting linear and cyclic α-1,4-glucans, and employ an azobenzene photoswitch as a template. Using UV or blue light to switch between photostationary states with different azobenzene cis/trans isomeric ratios, we can promote the out-of-equilibrium assembly of either α-cyclodextrin or β-cyclodextrin.

Supramolecular detection of geometrical differences of azobenzene carboxylates

In dynamic combinatorial chemistry, the geometry of a template can be translated into the composition of a library of interchanging components. In this study, such a dynamic combinatorial library was used for the first time to detect and evaluate differences in the geometry of isomers of photoswitchable azobenzene based templates.
