Abstract

A random copolymer containing 1,5-dialkyloxynaphthalene moieties has been synthesized using atom-transfer radical polymerization. We have shown that this polymer has the ability to form complexes with the tetracationic cyclophane cyclobis(paraquat-p-phenylene) (CBPQT4) and that electrochemical reduction of the cyclophane or the addition of a competing guest for the cavity of the cyclophane results in disassembly of the supramolecular polymer.

Abstract

We describe the role functionality attached to the C(7) position of a family of flavin derivatives has in tuning their redox and recognition properties and the subsequent exploitation of two of these derivatives as a three-component electrochemically controllable molecular switch.
