摘要
A new simple pyrene-substituted acylhydrazone derivative, 4-(3,4-dioctyloxy) phenyl-l-pyrene acylhydrazone (PAH-8), was designed and synthesized. The PAH-8 can form thermo-reversible organogel in DMSO, and shows gelation-induced enhanced fluorescence emission. Xerogel exhibits ribbon-like fibrous aggregates with widths of 0.5- 1 μm. The PAH-8 organogel indicates photo-responsive behaviors due to the trans-cis isomerizations of-C = N- bond upon exposure to visible or UV light. Upon visible light irradiation, the partial trans-cis isomerization of the -C=N- bond causes the fiber morphology to disappear, resulting in gel-sol transition, whereas the PAH-8 organogel exhibits few photoisomerizations from trans to cis transition without breakage of the gel state upon UV light irradiation.
