Abstract: | Photoreactivities and cation transporting properties of monomeric, dimeric, and polymeric crown ethers which contain cinnamoyl residues were investigated. Photochemical cycloaddition reaction of the cinnamoyl moieties was accelerated by NaCl or KCl for the dimeric and polymeric derivatives but not for the monomeric one. The dimeric and polymeric crown ethers after irradiation in the presence of KCl showed a significant enhancement in the transport rates for Rb+ cation. |
