Abstract

Chemistry Chemistry, Multidisciplinary Physical Sciences Science & Technology
[2+2]-Photodimerisation of monothiomaleimides has been demonstrated on functionalised linear and brush-like polymers. In water/acetonitrile (95 : 5) mixtures the rate of reaction is accelerated significantly by irradiation of the thiomaleimide end group (lambda(max)= 350 nm) with UV light, reaching full conversion within 10 minutes.
