New amphiphilic photochromic benzo-15(18)-crown-5(6) ethers (APC) differing in the position of the octadecyl substituent and the size of the crown cavity were synthesized. The compounds form stable monolayers in the air/water and air/alkaline metal salt solution interfaces. The results of the pressure isotherm measurements, atomic force microscopy (AFM), and electronic spectroscopy show that the structure of the monolayers formed depends on the structure of the parent APC and the nature of the cation in salt solutions. The area per molecule of APC in the monolayer (specific area) is the smallest on the water surface and increases by 20-40% on the aqueous subphase surface with an increasing concentration of salts therein to indicate the formation of APC complexes with the metal cations. When the hydrophobic aliphatic substituent is displaced from position 3 to position 5 of the benzothiazole ring, the specific area on the surface of water and subphases decreases twofold, which indicates the compactization of the monolayer on this modification. A reversible E-Z-photoisomerization of APC was found in the monolayers formed in the salt solution/air interface. The features of the reaction are defined by the specific organization of the amphiphilic molecules in the monolayer and by the nature of the cation. |
