چکیده
The synthesis and aggregation behavior of photo-switchable, nonionic dendritic amphiphiles was investigated with regard to transport and release of guest molecules. The correlation between the critical micelle concentration and the switching ability is shown.

Controlled reversible debundling of single-walled carbon nanotubes by photo-switchable dendritic surfactants.
Stimulus responsive surfactants based on dendritic glycerol azobenzene conjugates were used to solubilize and debundle single-walled carbon nanotubes in aqueous media. Their debundling property as well as their reaggregation behavior upon irradiation with light was examined and light triggered reversible bundling and precipitation are shown.
متن کاملPhotoresponsive self-assembled hexameric capsules based on calix[4]resorcinarenes bearing azobenzene dendron conjugates as side chains.
We synthesized calix[4]resorcinarenes bearing various azobenzene dendron conjugates as side chains, wherein the azobenzene moiety is a photoresponsive unit and the dendron moiety is a capsule-destabilizing unit, and then studied the photoresponsive properties of their self-assembled hexameric capsules in conjunction with guest encapsulation in H2O-saturated CDCl3. It was found that correlation ...
متن کاملPhotoreversible switching of the lower critical solution temperature in a photoresponsive host-guest system of pillar[6]arene with triethylene oxide substituents and an azobenzene derivative.
A new water-soluble thermoresponsive pillar[6]arene with triethylene oxide groups was synthesized. The pillar[6]arene showed lower critical solution temperature behavior in aqueous solution. Its clouding point was photoreversibly switched based on a photoresponsive host-guest system. The trans form of an azobenzene guest formed a stable 1:1 complex with the pillar[6]arene. Complexation increase...
