Hyperbranched polymeric N-oxide: a novel kind of metal-free photocatalyst

A N-O bond is introduced into hyperbranched polyimide photocatalysts for the first time to change their polarity and modulate electronic structure. Both of the changes help improve the photocatalytic ability of the polyimide. This strategy shows great prospect for synthesizing effective organic phot...

Summary:A N-O bond is introduced into hyperbranched polyimide photocatalysts for the first time to change their polarity and modulate electronic structure. Both of the changes help improve the photocatalytic ability of the polyimide. This strategy shows great prospect for synthesizing effective organic photocatalysts.
