Polymerizable Photochromic Macrocyclic Metallomesogens: Design of Supramolecular Polymers with Responsive Nanopores
Source abstract
Abstract
A liquid-crystalline (LC) monomer containing a bis(azobenzene)-based metallomacrocycle was synthesized and found to form a columnar hexagonal (ColH) LC phase. Adding solvent to swell the cross-linked ColH phase allows the azobenzene macrocycles to undergo photo-isomerization from the “closed” to “open” form with retention of LC order to afford a supramolecular polymer with photo-responsive nanopores.

20. The broad XRD peak at 15.6 Å in the polymer is the result of broadening and coalescence of the 19.7 Å (1/√7) and 17.3 Å (1/√9) peaks in the monomeric ColHphase into a single peak due to some loss of long‐range order upon cross‐linking.
