Polystannanes are characterized by a main chain which consists of covalently bound tin atoms. Characteristic absorption maxima in UV-vis spectra of poly(dialkylstannane)s are due to σ-delocalization and of poly(diarylstannane)s to σ-π delocalization. Poly(diorganostannane)s are thermally stable with decomposition comm…

Abstract Single‐walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) are functionalized with a spiropyran derivative, which is attached non‐covalently to the SWCNT's sidewall via a pyrene anchor group. Using this non‐covalent functionalization strategy, individual SWCNTs can be stabilized in solution without the need for additional surfa…
