Multi-responsive coordination polymers utilising metal-stabilised, dynamic covalent imine bonds

Chem Commun (Camb). 2016 Jul 12;52(58):9059-62. doi: 10.1039/c6cc00500d.

Abstract

We report how the combination of dynamic covalent imine bonds and coordination bonds in a single polymer material not only imparts enhanced stability to the final polymer, but also allows the material to be sensitive to a range of stimuli, offering more fine-grained control over its properties.
