Exploring Through-Space Charge Transfer-Mediated Optoelectrochemical Properties of Dual-State Luminescent Aliphatic Polymers and Optoelectronic Responses toward Metal Ions.

Herein, natural-synthetic hybrid dual-state luminescent conducting polymers (DLCPs/DLCP1-DLCP8) possessing significant optoelectrochemical properties are strategically developed by the polymerization of prop-2-enamide, cis-butenedioic acid, 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropane-1-sulfonic acid, and in situ-generated 2-(3-acrylamidopropanamido)-2-methylpropane-1-sulfonic acid alongside the grafting of gum tragacanth. The spectroscopic data of aliphatic DLCPs affirm DLCP7 as the most stable supramolecular assembly endowing optoelectronic properties. Computational calculations identified -C(═O)NH-, -C(═O)OH, -OH, and -SO
