A facile method to immobilize cucurbituril on surfaces through photocrosslinking with azido groups

Abstract

We develop a facile method to immobilize cucurbituril on silicon substrates through photochemical reaction with azido groups. Combining photolithography and the competitive molecular recognition between CB[7] and acridine orange base or 1-adamantanecarboxylic acid, a patterned surface with reversible fluorescence emission can be obtained.
