Abstract Poly-norbornene homo- and copolymers contg. aryl- and/or hetaryl-azo dyes were prepd. through ring-opening metathesis polymn. (ROMP). Thermal studies indicated that the polymers were thermally stable up to 250°, and possessed glass transition temps. ranging from 93 to 133°. In THF solns., the aryl-azo dye contg. homopolymers, displayed λmax = 417 nm while the hetaryl-azo dye contg. homopolymers displayed λmax = 495 nm. The copolymers displayed a λmax that encompassed both the aryl- and hetaryl-azo dye range. The monomers and polymers showed bathochromic shifts in soln. when acidified. The polymers were cast into films that changed color in the presence of both aq. 1.2 M HCl or HCl(g). The color change reverses when exposed to aq. 1.2 M NaOH or NH3(g). This process was repeated several times without disintegration of the polymer film, indicating that these polymers may be useful as reusable acid sensors. [on SciFinder(R)]
