Azobenzenes are great photochromic molecules for switching the physical properties of various materials via trans-cis isomerization. However, the UV light resulted cis-azobenzene is metastable and thermodynamically gets back to trans-azobenzene...

The principal values of the nitrogen nuclear magnetic resonance shielding tensor for trans-azobenzene have been measured and compared with theoretical values recently reported for trans-diazene. The shielding anisotropy for the two crystallographically nonequivalent molecules in trans-azobenzene is 925 and 880 ppm respectively, about 40% smaller than the value calculated for trans-diazene. Interestingly, the isotropic shielding constants for the two nonequivalent molecules are the same with in experimental error. The most shielded component of the 15N shielding tensor, σ33, is approximately perpendicular to the molecular plane, as it is in other planar π-systems; σ11, the least shielded component, is directed in the same general direction as the N—Cipso bond. The theoretical calculations overestimate the paramagnetic contribution to σ11. The magnitude and relative orientation of the nitrogen shielding tensor in trans-azobenzene are also compared with the corresponding phosphorus values in a diphosphene. Keywords: 15N chemical shielding anisotropy, solid state NMR, trans-azobenzene.

Sub-20-fs transient absorption spectroscopy and simulations show that CNN-bendings dominate the sub-ps dynamics of ππ*-excited trans-azobenzene, thereby driving the system to the ground state through a non-productive decay channel in violation of the Kasha rule.

Purpose. A simple type of photoresponsive amphiphilic linear-dendritic diblock copolymer has been synthesized and investigated for its ability to act as a drug carrier. These structures contain hydrophilic polyethylene oxide monomethyl ether (PEOM) as hydrophilic block and carbosiloxane dendritic branches as hydrophobic block grafted by two and six Magneson II as azo chromophore, PEOM-Azo, 2 and PEOM-Azo, 6 respectively. Self-assembling of the amphiphilic macromolecules of PEOM-Azo, 2 and PEOM-Azo, 6, briefly were represented as PEOM-Azo [2, 6], leads to the formation of their micellar aggregates in aqueous media. Method. Their micellar properties such as critical micelle concentration (CMC), aggregation number and thereby total numbers of azo-groups in each micellar aggregates were determined. Also, they were characterized by TEM, SEM and DLS. Results. The unloaded aggregates examined under UV light (366 nm), which were observed to be smaller than 300 nm. The release patterns of the encapsulated drug molecule from these aggregates were investigated as regulated by the PEOM-Azo [2, 6] systems in trans and cis forms. Conclusion. A comparison of the release behavior of the loaded PEOM-Azo [2, 6] systems indicated that the release rate of the encapsulated active molecules from the carriers was slower when the azo moieties were in trans form as compared to that the azo in the cis form. The in vitro release behavior of drug from these polymeric systems represents potential of the carriers for controlled drug delivery. This article is open to POST-PUBLICATION REVIEW.

Grafts of cultured allogenic or autogenic keratlnocytes have proven to be an effective treatment of chronic wounds and burns. This study utilized a collagen substrate for keratinocyte and fibroblast attachment. The substrate provided mechanical stability and augmented graft manipulation onto the wound bed. Graft integrity was confirmed by light and transmission electron microscopy.Bovine Type I dermal collagen sheets (100 μm thick) were crosslinked with 254 nm UV light (13.5 Joules/cm2) to improve mechanical properties and reduce degradation. A single cell suspension of third passage neonatal foreskin fibroblasts were plated onto the collagen. Five days later, a single cell suspension of first passage neonatal foreskin keratinocytes were plated on the opposite side of the collagen. The grafts were cultured for one month.The grafts were fixed in phosphate buffered 4% formaldehyde/1% glutaraldehyde for 24 hours. Graft pieces were then washed in 0.13 M phosphate buffer, post-fixed in 1% osmium tetroxide, dehydrated, and embedded in Polybed 812.
