The brief presents a systematic study of synthesis of optically active polymers. It discusses in detail about the synthesis of three different types of optically active polymers from helical polymers, dendronized polymers and other types of polymeric compounds. The brief also explains the synthesis of optically active azoaromatic and carbazole containing azoaromatic polymers and copolymers; optically active benzodithiophene; and optically active porphyrin derivatives. The final chapter of the brief discusses different properties of optically active polymers such as nonlinear optical properties, chiroptical properties, vapochromic behavior, absorption and emission properties, fabrication, and photochromic properties. The intrinsic details of different properties of optically active polymers presented in this work will be useful for researchers and industry personnel, who are actively engaged in application oriented investigations.
This book presents a systematic study of the synthesis of optically active polymers, discussing in detail the syntheses of three different types of optically active polymers from helical polymers, dendronized polymers and other types of polymeric compounds. It also explains the syntheses of optically active azoaromatic and carbazole-containing azoaromatic polymers and copolymers; optically active benzodithiophene; and optically active porphyrin derivatives. The final chapter discusses different properties of optically active polymers such as nonlinear optical properties, chiroptical properties, vapochromic behaviour, absorption and emission properties, fabrication and photochromic properties. The intrinsic details of various properties of optically active polymers will offer a valuable resource for researchers and industry personnel actively engaged in application-oriented investigations.
