Description
Summary:A versatile strategy for the synthesis of polymerizable derivatives of the redox-active indicator dye 2,2‘-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) is reported. Two products are shown to illustrate how the final step in the synthetic strategy can be used to alter the physical properties of the product. Both products were characterized spectroscopically and electrochemically. The hydrophilic monomer (sABTS) was polymerized, and the utility of this polymer (polyABTS) is demonstrated in the context of bioelectrocatalysis.
