Three kinds of chiral BINOL-based polymers could be synthesized by polymerization in a Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction.
Circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) was performed for the first time in G4 research in which chirality transfer from G4 to the achiral dye. Opposite CPL signals are obtained on mirror d-/l-enantiomers and parallel/antiparallel G4 changes.
Naphthylamine isomers co-assembly with a C2-symmetric chiral hydrogelator showed inversion of supramolecular chirality and CPL via chirality transfer.
