Supramolecular chirality has been widely introduced to polymers containing photoresponsive azobenzene groups. On the one hand, supramolecular chiral structures of azobenzene-containing polymers (Azo-polymers) can be produced by nonsymmetric arrangement of Azo units through noncovalent interactions. On the other hand, the reversibility of the photoisomerization also allows for the control of the supramolecular organization of the Azo moieties within polymer structures. The construction of supramolecular chirality in Azo-polymeric self-assembled system is highly important for further developments in this field from both academic and practical points of view. The postpolymerization self-assembly strategy is one of the traditional strategies for mainly constructing supramolecular chirality in Azo-polymers. The in situ supramolecular self-assembly mediated by polymerization-induced self-assembly (PISA) is a facile one-pot approach for the construction of well-defined supramolecular chirality during polymerization process. In this review, we focus on a discussion of supramolecular chirality of Azo-polymer systems constructed by traditional postpolymerization self-assembly and PISA-mediated in situ supramolecular self-assembly. Furthermore, we will also summarize the basic concepts, seminal studies, recent trends, and perspectives in the constructions and applications of supramolecular chirality based on Azo-polymers with the hope to advance the development of supramolecular chirality in chemistry. Keywords: supramolecular chirality; Azo-containing polymers; postpolymerization self-assembly; in situ polymerization-induced self-assembly 1. Introduction Chirality is ubiquitous and can be observed at various hierarchical levels from subatomic and molecular to supramolecular and macroscopic scales [1–3]. As chiral phenomena widely exist in nature (such as the D-sugars as the main components of DNA and the secondary R-helix structure of proteins) and various artificial and biomimetic systems [4,5], they are very important not only for fundamental sciences but also for practical applications in many areas, such as molecular and chiral recognition [6], chiral sensors [2], chiroptical switches [7] and asymmetric catalysis [8].

One of the notable differences between biological and artificial systems is the important fact that biological materials consist mostly of chiral molecules. While most biochemical processes routinely discriminate chiral molecules, differentiation between chiral molecules in artificial systems is currently one of the challenging subjects in the field of molecular recognition. Therefore, one of the important challenges for intelligent man-made sensors is to prepare a sensing system that can discriminate chiral molecules. Because intermolecular interactions and detection at surfaces are respectively parts of supramolecular chemistry

    Chapter 8. Chiral Catalysts José M. Fraile, José I. García, José A. Mayoral 1. The Origin of Enantioselectivity in Catalytic Processes: the Nanoscale of Enantioselective Catalysis. Enantiomerically pure compounds are extremely important in fields such as medicine and pharmacy, nutrition, or materials with optical properties. Among the different methods to obtain enantiomerically pure compounds, asymmetric catalysis1 is probably the most interesting and challenging, in fact one single molecule of chiral catalyst can transfer its chiral information to thousands or even millions of new chiral molecules. Enantioselective reactions are the result of the competition between different possible diastereomeric reaction pathways, through diastereomeric transition states, when the prochiral substrate complexed to the chiral catalyst reacts with the corresponding reagent. The efficiency of the chirality transfer, measured as enantiomeric excess [% ee = (R−S)/(R+S) × 100], depends on electronic and steric factors in a very subtle form. A simple calculation shows that differences in energy of only 2 kcal/mol between these transition states are enough to obtain more than 90% ee, and small changes in any of the participants in the catalytic process can modify significantly this difference in energy. Those modifications may occur in the near environment of the catalytic centre, at less than 1 nm scale, but also at longer distances in the catalyst, substrate, reagent, solvent, or support in the case of immobilized catalysts. This is the reason because asymmetric

The dynamic twisting abilities of solvent molecules are often ignored and unknown, although the targeted molecules and polymers in a fluid solution are surrounded by solvent molecules. We should pay more attention to the facts that mostly all of the chemical and physical properties of these molecules and polymers in the ground and photoexcited states are significantly influenced by the surrounding solvent molecules with much conformational freedom through non-covalent supramolecular interactions between these substances and solvent molecules. This review highlights a series of studies that include: (i) historical background, covering chiral NaClO3 crystallization in the presence of D-sugars in the late 19th century; (ii) early solvent chirality effects for optically inactive chromophores/fluorophores in the 1960s–1980s; and (iii) the recent development of mirror symmetry breaking from the corresponding achiral or optically inactive molecules and polymers with the help of molecular chirality as the solvent use quantity.

  • Chiral Solvation Induced Supramolecular Chiral Assembly of Achiral Polymers
    Chapter 4 Chiral Solvation Induced Supramolecular Chiral Assembly of Achiral Polymers Wei Zhang, Yin Zhao and Lu Yin Additional information is available at the end of the chapter http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/67700 Abstract 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 achiral sources, such as achiral poly(n‐hexyl isocyanate) (PHIC), π‐conjugated polymers, oligo(p‐phenylenevinylene), polyacetylenes, σ‐conjugated polysilanes and side‐chain polymers. Supramolecular chirality is well established through their intra‐ or inter‐molecular noncovalent interactions, such as van der Waals, CH/π, dipole‐dipole interactions, hydrogen bonding and metal‐ligand coordi‐ nating interactions. Compared with the traditional methods, this strategy avoids the use of expensive chiral reagents and also expands the scope towards challenging substrates. This chapter highlights a series of studies that include: (i) the development‐historical background of chiral solvent induction strategy; (ii) the chiral‐solvation‐induced chirality in small molecules and oligomers; and (iii) recent developments in polymers, especially in π‐conjugated polymers and σ‐conjugated polymers. Keywords: optical activity, supramolecular chirality, chiral solvation, self‐assembly, circular dichroism, circularly polarized luminescence 1. Introduction As early as the second half of the nineteenth century, many scientists have long thought that the intrinsic biomolecular homochirality found in the living world is the origin of life on earth, since inherent optical activity exists inside all living organisms [1–14].

Abstract This thesis deals with the design and synthesis of ligands for asymmetric catalysis: palladium catalyzed allylic alkylations, and rho- dium and iridium catalyzed hydrogenations of olefins. Chirally flexible phosphepine ligands based on biphenyl were synthesized and their properties were studied. The rotation barrier for configurationally flexible phosphepines was determined by NMR spectroscopy. The ratio of the atropisomers was shown to depend on the group bound to phosphorus. Only complexes with two homochiral ligands bound to the metal center were observed upon complexation with Rh(I). It was shown that one diastereomer of the flexible ligand exhibits higher activity but lower selectivity than its diastereomer in the rhodium catalyzed hydrogenation of methyl α-acetamido- cinnamate. These ligands were also tested in nickel catalyzed silabora- tions. Chiral P,N-ligands with pseudo-C2 and pseudo-CS symmetry based on pyrrolidines-phospholanes or azepines-phosphepines were synthesized and studied in palladium catalyzed allylic alkylations.
