Poly(azomethine)s have been extensively studied due to their interesting properties such as electrically conducting and optical properties, thermal and mechanical resistance, and environmental stability. Novel supramolecular compounds, e.g. polyrotaxanes and pseudo-polyrotaxanes, have been investigated recently with a focus on tailoring a variety of properties. In this work we report the formation of a supramolecular complex between ß-cyclodextrin and terephthaldehyde and the subsequent polycondensation of these complexes with diamines such as poly(oxypropylene) diamine using fullerene as an end-capping agent. The polycondensation reaction is performed in solution leading to the novel polyazomethine with rotaxane architecture. The products were characterized by UV-VIS, FT-IR, and NMR spectroscopy as well as by GPC and TGA. |
