Abstract:An o-nitrobenzyl dithiol and a group of diacrylates containing one or two functional groups were designed for facile synthesis of a series of linear photo-labile functional and heterobifunctional poly(β-thioester)s via thiol-ene click polymerization. These o-nitrobenzyl thioether-containing polyesters show excellent photo-degradation properties under UV light. Photoresponsive polymeric nanoparticles from a functional polyester exhibit good weeding performance as a herbicide delivery system. The possible photo-… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
