New Light on the Ring–Chain Equilibrium of a Hydrogen‐Bonded Supramolecular Polymer Based on a Photochromic Dithienylethene Unit and its Energy‐Transfer Properties as a Storage Material
Bibliographic record
Abstract
A novel, bifunctional, quadruple hydrogen-bonding ureido-pyrimidinone (UPy) unit bridged by photochromic dithienylethene (1) has been synthesized, which affords linear assemblies in solution and undergoes concentration-dependent ring-opening polymerization. The two UPy functional groups of 1 can dimerize intramolecularly to form a cyclic monomer with the two thienyl rings fixed in a parallel conformation, which prohibits its photocyclization. We exploited the photochemical reactivity and resonance difference of the linker of the bis-UPy derivative as well as using the more typical (1)H NMR, DOSY, and Ubbelohde viscometry methods to investigate for the first time the ring-chain polymerization mechanism. Moreover, we fabricated a mixed polymer film with a fluorescent dye noncovalently endcapping the linear photochromic assemblies through quadruple hydrogen bonds, which showed nondestructive fluorescent read-out ability for data storage by fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) from the fluorescent dye to the closed form of the diarylethene.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
