Abstract The optically active photochromic homopolymer deriving from radical polymerization of the monomer (R)-3-methacryloyloxy-1-(4’-nitro-4-azobenzene)- pyrrolidine, containing a chiral group of one prevailing configuration interposed between the methacrylic moiety and the photochromic azoaromatic chromophore, has been synthesized and characterized. Copolymers with the enantiomeric monomer (S)-3-methacryloyloxy-1-(4’-nitro-4-azobenzene)pyrrolidine have also been prepared in order to evaluate the effect on the overall optical activity of side chain chiral groups of opposite configuration in various ratios. The spectroscopic and chiroptical properties in solution of the polymeric derivatives have been assessed.
