title: Protonic and temperature modulation of constituent expression by component selection in a dynamic combinatorial library of imines.
abstract: The constitutional recomposition of a dynamic library of imines displays a complex behavior under the effect of two parameters, acidity and temperature. A qualitative analysis of the quantitative data is presented. The results illustrate the response of such a dynamic system to a physical stimulus (temperature) and a chemical effector (H+), thus demonstrating its adaptive behavior under the pressure of external factors. They also point to the possibility of modulating a given functional property (optical, electronic, ionic) by constitutional recomposition induced by a specific trigger. Such features are of great interest for the development of stimuli-responsive, functional dynamic materials.
