Aminofishing Side-Chain Polymers

The first examples were reported in 1993 by Geckeler and Hirsch, who synthesized 49 and 50 by titration of C ) with poly(ethylene imine) and poly 4-[(2- 

Other remarkable examples of Qo functionalized amino-polymers are 51 [50], 52 [51] and 53 [52, 53]. The latter was obtained by photochemical reaction between Ca) and the secondary amine of poly (ethylene imine), following a photo-induced electron transfer-proton transfer mechanism. In this way, the authors prepared water-soluble materials with a Ca content of up to 37 wt%, which showed fluorescence quenching via intrapolymer electron transfer.
