Abstract
Amphiphilic polymers can self-assemble to form nanoparticles with different structures under suitable conditions. Polymer nanoparticles functionalized with aromatic azo groups are endowed with photo-responsive properties. In recent years, a variety of photoresponsive polymers and nanoparticles have been developed based on azobenzene, using different molecular design strategies and synthetic routes. This article reviews the progress of this rapidly developing research field, focusing on the structure, synthesis, assembly and response of photo-responsive polymer assemblies. According to the molecular structure, photo-responsive polymers can be divided into linear polymers containing azobenzene in a side chain, linear polymers containing azobenzene in the main chain, linear polymers containing azobenzene in an end group, branched polymers containing azobenzene and supramolecular polymers containing azobenzene. These systems have broad biomedical application prospects in the field of drug delivery and imaging applications.

Abstract
Multi-stimuli responsive materials have attracted intense attention as extensive application prospect in many fields, yet achievement of multi-stimuli responsiveness remains a challenge. Herein, we report a tri-stimuli responsive supramolecular structure fabricated by a cationic surfactant, 4-ethyl-4'-(trimethylaminohexyloxy) azobenzene bromide (ETAB), and anionic Eu-containing polyoxometalates (Eu-POM), based on an ionic self-assembly (ISA) strategy. Following different responsive mechanisms, the resultant ETAB/Eu-POM supramolecular materials are responsive to UV light, pH, and Cu(2+), respectively. The response to UV irradiation is based on the configuration change of azobenzene molecules. The response to H(+) can be attributed to the formation of a hydrogen bond W-O···H···O-H among Eu-POM, H(+), and H2O, which blocks the energy transfer pathway from O → W, while the coordination interaction between Cu(2+) and Oc (bridged oxygen of two octahedra sharing an edge in the Eu-POM molecule) causes the response to Cu(2+). The multi-stimuli responsive characteristics for the ETAB/Eu-POM supramolecular structures maybe provide a potential application in ultraviolet detection, optical storage devices, and chemical substance sensors, etc.

Abstract
Multicomponent coupling reactions (MCRs) are becoming increasingly used in the synthesis of macromolecules, as they can allow the rapid generation of libraries of materials as a method to tune properties. MCRs could prove particularly useful in the synthesis of π-conjugated polymers in which structural changes are necessary for fine-tuning of electronic properties. We describe here the first metal-free multicomponent approach to conjugated polymers. This reaction exploits the coupling of imines, acid chlorides, and (catechyl)PPh to generate phospha-münchnone-containing polymers, which can be converted to poly(pyrroles) via cycloaddition. The platform allows for the efficient synthesis of families of high molecular weight polymers in one step from readily available monomers.

Abstract
In this paper, nanotubes with a uniform diameter were prepared by self-assembly of an achiral azobenzene-containing fatty acid. The polymorphic transformation of the assemblies during the cooling process was systematically studied. By controlling the incubation temperature, different morphologies, such as membranes, stripes, helical ribbons and tubes, were all obtained in our experiment. These elements were all predicted by Selinger et al. in the theoretical model of the formation of nanotubes. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first experimental example to fully support their theory.

Abstract
In this paper, a new bolaamphiphile bearing 1-cyano-1,2-bis(phenyl)ethene (CNBE) has been synthesized. The self-assembly of this molecule in aqueous solution is concentration-dependent. Two distinct morphologies, monomolecular layered lamellas and helical nanofibres have been obtained with the as-prepared molecular configuration. Note worthily, the helical nanofibres provide an experimental evidence for the pure twisted structure in the liquid crystals, which is theoretically proposed by De Gennes. Due to the photoisomerization of CNBE, the self-assembled nanostructures undergo morphological changes upon irradiation. Although various nanostructures were observed in the solution-state, only nanofibres were obtained after the solution was cast on a substrate, which was attributed to a strong dewetting effect. This work illustrates concentration-dependent and light-responsive self-assembly and provides a novel avenue for fabricating smart soft materials.
