[ 5,9 ] Usually, fi lms or elastomers based on polysiloxanes are cross-linked by the following three main methods: 1) platinum-catalyzed hydrosilylation between vinyl groups and Si-H bond, 2) titanium-catalyzed condensation reaction of alkoxysilane with -OH-ended polysiloxanes, and 3) thermal-initiated free radical cross-linking reaction. However, most of these processes are catalyzed by heavy metals, [ 10,11 ] and metallic catalysts should be avoided from the standpoint of "green" chemistry. [ 12,13 ] Therefore, the establishment of a new general strategy to prepare a cross-linked polysiloxane network is imperative. The addition reaction between thiol and olefi ns to produce thioethers has been known for some time, and both Michael addition and free-radical addition mechanisms are depicted. [ 14,15 ] Thiol-ene "click" chemistry, a robust and environment-friendly radical-based, versatile, and rapid process in the presence of oxygen, could fulfi ll our anticipations. [16][17][18][19] However, most of the thiol-ene crosslink reactions are induced by UV light and can proceed at wavelengths of approximately 365 nm. [ 20,21 ] Even though thiol-ene reactions have been studied for a long time, covering different scientifi c fi elds from polymer science to biochemistry, only very few examples have been reported on thiol-ene additions irradiated by natural sunlight. [ 21,22 ] The generation of thiyl radicals using solar radiation should be possible. To the best of our knowledge, literature on cross-linking networks realized by sunlight induced thiol-ene reaction is not present to date. Thus, we focused on a novel cross-linking system synthesized under sunlight. Compared with the conventional thiol-ene reactions triggered by UV light, a sunlight-induced reaction indicates a "greener" method that does not need excessive power.However, the typically unpleasant odors of low-molecular-weight thiols also have limited their commercial utilization. [ 23,24 ] To overcome these disadvantages and to obtain photo curing materials based on poly[(mercaptopropyl)methylsiloxane] (PMMS) with enhanced performance, we introduced D -limonene containing two different vinyl groups into PMMS to develop a novel sunlight-cured hybrid material. To take advantage of the physical and mechanical properties of polysiloxanebased materials and to allow connection with other functional molecules, PMMS was chosen as the base component for the siloxane-based systems.The increasing pursuit of biocontained elastic materials led the investigation of the potential use of the monoterpene limonene in fi lm synthesis via thiol-ene reaction. Poly[(mercaptopropyl)methylsiloxane] (PMMS) is fi rst synthesized. By controlling the molar ratio of PMMS and functional monomers, such as polyethylene glycol allyl methyl ether or rhodamine-B, PMMS is partially functionalized while leaving spare mercapto groups that could be further used as cross-linking sites. On the basis of the functionalized PMMS, novel transparent silic...
