Synthesis of methyl-substituted azobenzene–carbazole conjugated copolymers with photoinduced structural changes
Otaki, Masashi,Kumai, Reiji,Goto, Hiromasa
, p. 1756 - 1764 (2019/08/01)
Azobenzene switches its structure instantaneously by reversible trans-to-cis and cis-to-trans photoisomerization with light irradiations. Dynamic change in polymer structure is expected via introducing an azobenzene unit into the main chain. In this study
Bismuth nanoparticles: an efficient catalyst for reductive coupling of nitroarenes to azo-compounds
Pothula, Kishore,Tang, Lin,Zha, Zhenggen,Wang, Zhiyong
, p. 83144 - 83148 (2015/10/19)
The synthesis of azoarenes from corresponding nitroarenes was developed by virtue of in situ bismuth nanoparticles. A series of aromatic azo compounds can be obtained under mild reaction conditions with excellent yields.
Light-orchestrated macromolecular "accordions": Reversible photoinduced shrinking of rigid-rod polymers
Bleger, David,Liebig, Tobias,Thiermann, Raphael,Maskos, Michael,Rabe, Juergen P.,Hecht, Stefan
, p. 12559 - 12563 (2012/02/04)
Light can play: Irradiation causes dramatic changes in the shape of rigid-rod polymers incorporating azobenzene photochromes in the main chain. The embedded photoswitches act as hinges, which upon light-induced isomerization lead to reversible shrinking a
