Pseudopolyrotaxane composed of an azobenzenepolymer and γ-cyclodextrin. Reversible and irreversible photoisomerization of the azobenzene groups in the polymer chain

Abstract

A polyrotaxane composed of γ-cyclodextrin and azobenzene containing polyester undergoes UV light induced isomerization of trans- to cis- azobenzene, whereas the reverse isomerization does not occur under the usual conditions of irradiation with visible light.
