A novel methacrylate-based cross-linked polymer gel bearing an iridium photocatalyst showed air tolerance and pumping recyclability features through its tunable swelling and deswelling ability. The photocatalytic activity of the polymer gel was demonstrated through an E-to-Z isomerisation reaction and in an azide-alkene [2+3] cycloaddition.
