CRC 1459 - A05: Light-controlled anion-binding adaptive supramolecular systems
Basic data for this project
Type of project: Subproject in DFG-joint project hosted at University of Münster
Duration at the University of Münster: 01/01/2025 - 31/12/2028 | 2nd Funding period
Description
In this project, photo-responsive anion receptors are developed, allowing photo-selective anion binding and photo-reversible anion availability. To achieve molecular adaptation, the coupling of light, anion binding and temperature will be applied as orthogonal stimuli, aiming to implement memory through complex pathways which result in different aggregation states of matter, depending on the order in which the stimuli are applied and involving an interplay of photoisomerization cycles with varying rates of adaptive anion binding. Aggregation tags on the host structure will further enable development of weakly interacting, tuneable components for adaptive soft materials such as supramolecular polymers and gels.
