Abstract: | Novel copolyacrylates containing various molar ratios of 5,10,15‐trip‐(9‐methoxy‐triethylenoxy)phenyl]‐20‐(p‐acryloxyphenyl)porphyrin units in the chains have been synthesized, and their chemical structure was determined by NMR and MALDI‐TOF mass spectrometry. Sensing response of the synthesized copolymers has been tested for trifluoroacetic and hydrochloric acids and nitrogen dioxide analytes. The reported sensing data indicate that porphyrin units are interacting with analytes in a reversible fashion. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem, 2011 |
