摘要

Abstract

This article presents a brief overview of recent advances in azo-containing supramolecular systems. In literature

it has been shown that azo supramolecular polymers and their composite materials exhibit fast and intelligent responses to various external stimuli

such as temperature

pH change

redox reagents

ligands

coupling reagents

etc

. In applications

these systems are widely used for molecular motors

shape memory

liquid crystal

solar thermal energy storage

signal transmission

intelligent encryption

and other purposes. Furthermore

these systems can function as key components for device upgrade processing. However

the design and rules of azo supramolecular polymers are still not supported by an exact theory. Information about the relationship between the spatial structure and behavior is lacking

and new supramolecular materials cannot be designed by adding functional moieties to known azo polymers. Based on the current research status

this review mainly summarizes the structural design principles as well as structures and applications of known azo supramolecules; meanwhile

it highlights the emerging development fields

recent advances

and prospects in fabricating self-assembling intelligent supramolecular systems with azo supramolecular polymers as responsive units. The goal of this review is to bring new inspiration to researchers who want to optimize the chemical structure

steric conformation

electrostatic environment

and specific molecular functionalization.
