Symmetric polymerizable α,ω-dipolar C22-diacetylenes were prepared by oxidative coupling of 10-undecynoic acid and 10-undecynol, respectively, by means of copper II salts in ethanolic solution. 10,12-Docosadiyne-1,22-diphosphate (3)—by reaction of 10,12-docosadiyne-1,22-diol (2) with POCl3—was polymerized in aqueous solution using UV irradiation to form deep blue, thermochromic solutions. By consonication of 3 with cholesterol, monolayer vesicles were formed. This was proven by encapsulation of 6-carboxyfluorescein. These monomeric vesicles were polymerized by UV light to yield stable, deep blue polymeric vesicle suspensions.
