Novel poly(azoamide triazole)s containing twin azobenzene units in the backbone. Synthesis, characterization, and in vitro degradation studies

We describe the synthesis and characterization of four new light and reduction sensitives poly(azoamide triazole)s, in which the azobenzene units are found along the main chain of the macromolecule. These polymers were prepared by the azide-alkyne cycloaddition reaction catalyzed with copper (I) (CuAAC). They were obtained in high yield and with apparent molecular weights in the range from 95 to 148 kDa. All poly(azoamide triazole)s are soluble...
