Abstract

Hydrophilic copolymers containing recognition motifs based on 2-naphthol moieties in their side chains for the self-assembly with cucurbit[8]uril (CB[8]), have been prepared by reversible addition–fragmentation chain transfer polymerization. Self-assembly of the copolymer with both redox sensitive hydrophilic and hydrophobic viologen derivatives in the presence of CB[8] has been investigated.
