Chiral Solvation Induced Supramolecular Chiral Assembly of Achiral Polymers
To date, liquid crystal chirality, mechanophysical chirality, circularly polarized photon chirality, gelation and chiral solvation are all feasible candidates to generate optically active polymers and supramolecular chirality when employing achiral molecules as start‐ ing substances. Among this, chiral‐solvation‐induced chirality is one of the dominant methods for construction of chirality from...
متن کاملA spectroscopic and thermodynamic study of porphyrin/DNA supramolecular assemblies.
Assemblies of trans-bis(N-methylpyridinium-4-yl)diphenylporphine ions on the surface of calf thymus DNA have been studied using several spectroscopic techniques: absorbance, circular dichroism, and resonance light scattering. The aggregation equilibrium can be treated as a two-state system-monomer and assembly-each bound to the nucleic acid template. The aggregate absorption spectrum in the Sor...
متن کاملWater coordinated zinc dioxo-chlorin and porphyrin self-assemblies as chlorosomal mimics: variability of supramolecular interactions.
Semisynthetic zinc chlorins are shown for the first time to self-assemble in the absence of an intrinsic hydroxy group, which is always present in the chlorosomal bacteriochlorophylls (BChl's) c, d and e. Instead, the presently studied compounds have carbonyl groups. These cannot function as hydrogen bond donating groups. However due to interspacing water molecules bound to the zinc ion, double...
متن کاملChiral and Achiral Crystal Structures
An extensive study and analysis of the concepts, classification, presentation, and nomenclature of chirality and lack of chirality in crystal structures and their constituents is presented. Oriented crystal structures are classified. The chirality rules for existence of molecular crystal structures are examined and the relation to segmentation and latent symmetry highlighted. The nomenclature o...
متن کاملA strategy for tuning achiral main-chain polymers into helical assemblies and chiral memory systems.
A general strategy to tune the achiral main chain polymers into helical nanoassemblies was proposed based on the co-gelation approach. As an example, two achiral main chain polymers, PCz8 and PSi8, were selected, and their co-assembly with an amphiphilic l- or d-glutamide gelator was investigated. Although the polymers could not form gels individually, they could form co-gels with the gelator a...
