Wavelength Orthogonal Photodynamic Networks

Abstract: The ability of light to remotely control the properties of soft matter materials in a dynamic fashion has fascinated material scientists and photochemists for decades. However, only recently has our ability to map photochemical reactivity in a finely wavelength resolved fashion allowed for different colors of light to independently control the material properties of polymer networks with high precision, driven by monochromatic irradiation enabling orthogonal reaction control. The current concept article highli… Show more

“…To achieve such a high degree of orthogonality, it is essential to understand the wavelength-resolved reactivity for each photoactive component in the solution concerning their absorption spectra in the same solvent. Numerous applications include functionalized surfaces, hydrogels and lithography, control of nucleic acids, gene expression, regulation of enzyme activity and interfering with neuronal processes 15 , 16 .…”

“…[18,19] The longer activation wavelength further allows for their use in conjunction with other photochemical reactions, activated by shorter wavelength of light, in sequence-independent λ-orthogonal systems. [20][21][22][23] While red-shifted absorption of the chromophores can be developed by engineering the chemical structure to expand the π-system via conjugation with aromatic systems, e.g. napthalene, [24,25] anthracene, [26] pyrene, [19] or pyranocarbazole, [27] their photoreactivity can be further controlled by the environment.…”

“…1 The prospect of employing light as the clean energy source for synthetic purposes has thus inspired the development of various light-driven molecular systems to generate reactive moieties in organic synthesis, 3 or to gate bond formation and cleavage in soft matter materials. 4 A transformative application of photochemistry is the use of light to regulate chemical reactions in sequence. Specifically, excitation of certain chromophores can cause the rearrangement of molecules into higher-energy stages, e.g.…”
