Popis: | Two new photoactive materials compatible with environmentally friendly solvents (water and methanol) have been synthesized and characterized. They are comprised of a porous matrix of polystyrene and divinylbenzene with bound Rose Bengal and additional pendant groups added to increase the hydrophilicity (ethylenediamine and γ-gluconolactone). The new polymers are efficient photocatalysts capable of generating singlet oxygen after irradiation with visible light. Photochemical oxygenations of 9,10-anthracenedipropionic acid and 2-furoic acid have been carried out. The measured conversions indicate that the new supported photosensitizers are more effective than the parent hydrophobic polymer. |
