研究目的
This chapter highlights how we can utilize photochromic molecules to control (i) the degree of supramolecular polymerization, (ii) the supramolecular polymerization process, and (iii) topologies of one‐dimensional chains.
研究成果
The chapter concludes that supramolecular polymers, due to their reversible nature, offer exceptional controllability in bond breakage and formation by using external stimuli, making them highly attractive for various applications.
研究不足
The chapter does not address the application of photochromic molecules for other functional materials, such as vesicles, micelles, gels, organic nanotubes, biomolecular systems, and molecular machines, which are summarized in other important reviews.
1：Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The chapter discusses the use of photochromic molecules to control supramolecular polymerization through various noncovalent interactions such as host–guest and metal-ligand complexation, complementary hydrogen-bonding interactions, and π–π stacking interactions.
2：Sample Selection and Data Sources:
The study focuses on supramolecular polymers formed by small molecular units brought together through reversible and directional noncovalent interactions.
3：List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
The chapter mentions the use of UV–vis titration experiments, AFM, TEM, DLS, and other spectroscopic techniques for analysis.
4：Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The chapter describes the photoisomerization of azobenzene and other photochromic molecules to control the polymerization process.
5：Data Analysis Methods:
The chapter discusses the use of spectroscopic and morphological observations to analyze the supramolecular polymerization process.
