Modeling of Azobenzene-Based Compounds

Physical Sciences Reviews, 2017
AbstractAzobenzene is by far the most studied photochromic molecule and its applications range from optical storage to bio-engineering. To exploit the great potential of azobenzene, one must achieve deep understanding of its photochemistry as single molecule in solution AS WELL AS in-chain moiety and pendent group in macromolecular structures. With the

Accurate and Anti‐Interference Control of Computer Vision‐Assisted Light‐Driven Liquid Crystal Elastomer Actuator

Advanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2025.
This article introduces a computer vision‐assisted control strategy for light‐driven liquid crystal elastomer actuators. Through negative feedback regulation, the liquid crystal elastomer actuator exhibits accurate and stable bending deformation in complex environments.

Dynamic Obstacle Avoidance of Metamorphic Microrobots Using Concentric Sector Navigator

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Metamorphic magnetic microrobots are navigated using a concentric sector navigator for dynamic obstacle avoidance in both microroller and swarm states. After microroller transport, citrate‐triggered dissolution releases nanoparticles that reassemble into a controllable swarm.

Photomechanical Azobenzene Crystals

Crystals, 2019
Photomechanically responsive materials are promising candidates for future smart actuator applications. The photo-responsive behaviors originate from the photoisomerization of photochromic molecules.

Photoswitching of Site-Selective RNA Scission by Sequential Incorporation of Azobenzene and Acridine Residues in a DNA Oligomer

Journal of Nucleic Acids, 2011
Photoresponsive systems for site-selective RNA scission have been prepared by combining Lu(III) ions with acridine/azobenzene dual-modified DNA. The modified DNA forms a heteroduplex with substrate RNA, and the target phosphodiester linkages in front of ...

Supramolecular effects in dendritic systems containing photoactive groups

Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2000
In this article are described dendritic structures containing photoactive groups at the surface or in the core. The observed supramolecular effects can be attributed to the nature of the photoactive group and their location in the dendritic architecture.

Synthesis and testing of the first azobenzene mannobioside as photoswitchable ligand for the bacterial lectin FimH

Beilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2013
In order to allow spatial and temporal control of carbohydrate-specific bacterial adhesion, it has become our goal to synthesise azobenzene mannosides as photoswitchable inhibitors of type 1 fimbriae-mediated adhesion of E. coli.

Electron attachment to trans-azobenzene

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics, 2009
The temporary anion states of gas-phase trans-azobenzene are characterised by means of electron transmission spectroscopy (ETS) in the 0-6 eV range. The measured energies of vertical electron attachment are compared with the energies of the pi* virtual orbitals of the neutral molecule supplied by HF (at MP2 optimized geometries) and B3LYP calculations.

Von In‐Silico bis In‐Cerebro – Entwicklung des Orexinrezeptor Antagonisten „Photorexant“ zur Photomodulation In Vitro und im Gehirn der Maus

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Durch einen strukturbasierten Designansatz wurden photoschaltbare Derivate des von der FDA zugelassenen Arzneistoffes Suvorexant entwickelt, gedockt, synthetisiert und pharmakologisch an den Orexin‐1‐ und 2‐Rezeptoren (OX1R und OX2R) charakterisiert.
