Dibenzothiophene and its derivatives in gasoline and diesel would release sulfur oxides during combustion, and this is harmful to human health and the environment. This paper reports a method based on a visible-light-responsive molecularly imprinted polyurethane (VMIPU) to monitor trace dibenzothiophene in gasoline. The VMIPU was prepared by a polyaddition reaction using ,-bis-(2-hydroxyethyl)-4-phenylazoaniline as the functional monomer, dibenzothiophene as the template molecule, diphenylmethane diisocyanate as the crosslinker and castor oil as the chain extender. The VMIPU showed good visible-light-response and specific adsorption for dibenzothiophene. The → photoisomerization rate constant of azobenzene chromophores in the VMIPU shows a linear relationship with the dibenzothiophene concentration in the range of 0-20 μmol L. This was used to estimate trace dibenzothiophene in spiked gasoline with recoveries of 95.7-101.0% and relative standard deviations of 7.0-12.7%.

In this work, a label-free nonenzymatic photoelectrochemical (PEC) sensor is successfully developed for the detection of a typical pollutant, microcystin-LR (MC-LR), based on a visible-light-responsive alloy oxide, with highly ordered and vertically aligned Ti-Fe-O nanotubes (NTs) as substrates. Ti-Fe-O NTs consisting mainly of TiO and atomically doped FeO are prepared on a Ti-Fe alloy by electrochemical anodic oxidation. Using a simple electrochemical deposition technique, reduced graphene oxide (RGO) could be grown onto Ti-Fe-O NTs, exhibiting significant bifunctions.

A visible-light-responsive azobenzene derivative, 3,5-dichloro-4-((2,6-dichloro-4-(methacryloyloxy)phenyl)diazenyl)benzoic acid, was synthesized and used as the functional monomer to fabricate a visible-light-responsive core-shell structured surface molecularly imprinted polymer (PS-co-PMAA@VSMIP). After removal of the sacrificial PS-co-PMAA core, a hollow structured surface molecularly imprinted polymer (HVSMIP) was obtained. Both the PS-co-PMAA@VSMIP and HVSMIP were used for the detection of chlorpyrifos, a moderately toxic organophosphate pesticide.

The phototoxicity of UV light limits the application of conventional azobenzene-based photoresponsive molecularly imprinted polymers in the biomedical field. This paper reports a tetra--methoxy-substituted azobenzene, -(4-((4-amino-2,6-dimethoxyphenyl)diazenyl)-3,5-dimethoxyphenyl)methacrylamide (ADDDM), whose photoswitching is induced by all visible-light irradiation (440 nm for form to form and 630 nm for form to form) in ,-dimethylformamide and tetrahydrofuran (1:9, v/v). Using ADDDM as the monomer, a visible-light-responsive surface molecularly imprinted polymer (VSMIP) on silica microspheres was fabricated for acyclovir (ACV).
