A monomer used for polymers with controlled mol­ecular cavities appropriate for gas separation

What is it about?

Pentiptycenes possess a rigid, bulky, aromatic, π-electron-rich three-dimensional structure. They have various applications in fluorescence, chemical sensing and a light-driven mol­ecular brake. Pentiptycene-6,13-diol is currently used as a principal reactant for preparing polymer with high free volume used for gas separation, CO2 removal membranes

Why is it important?
