Notes:
Several models of monomers, homopolymers, and copolymers containing a photosensitizer group, 4-nitro-1-naphthyl-carbamoyl (NNC), have been synthesized. Synthetic methods are described, in addition to two routes for copolymers preparation. First, the radical copolymerization between monomers with the photosensitizer group built-in and comercial monomers such as styrene and methyl acrylate and, second, polymer modification by nucleophilic reaction between carbonyl group polymer supported and nitro-naphthyl amine. All products were characterized and one of the resulting soluble polymeric photosensitizer and its model compound, were tested as triplet energy donors against trans- stilbene and their Stern-Volmer constants were determined. Results show that the sensitizer efficiency is closer to that of the well known benzophenone sensitizer and higher than that of the acetophenone, while the sensitizer efficiency disminished when the chromophore is bonded to the polymer.
