A reversibly photoresponsive halogen bonding receptor as a photoswitchable catalyst for an anion abstraction reaction and cationic polymerization
An azobenzene-derived photoresponsive halogen bonding receptor shows photoswitchable halide anion binding behavior, and this feature further enables photocontrolled XB-mediated catalysis of an anion abstraction reaction and cationic polymerization.
