Anisotropic NMR spectroscopy, revealing residual dipolar couplings (RDCs) and residual chemical shift anisotropies (RCSAs) has emerged as a powerful tool to determine the configurations of synthetic and complex natural compounds. The deduction of the absolute in addition to the relative configuration is one of the primary goals in the field. Therefore, the investigation of the enantiodiscriminating capabilities of chiral alignment media becomes essential.

The measurement of anisotropic residual dipolar couplings (RDCs) parameters for the structure elucidation of organic molecules relies on suitable alignment media. Employment of self-assembled liquid crystalline systems to create anisotropic alignment can be an effective way to realize aligned samples and acquire RDCs. This Mini-review highlights the recent advances on amino acid-based helical polymers and supramolecular oligomers forming rigid, rod-like structures that aggregate into ordered liquid crystalline phases, including amino acid-based helical polyisocyanides, polyacetylenes, polypeptides, and oligopeptides assembled alignment media.

This article reports on a novel type of ternary chiral porous hybrid particles (TCPHPs) constructed by alkynylated cellulose nanocrystals (A-CNCs), helical substituted polyacetylene, and inorganic silica. The resulting TCPHPs combine the respective advantages of the three components. A-CNCs serve as stabilizer, co-monomer, and chiral source simultaneously and transfer their chirality to the resulting helical substituted polyacetylenes in the course of copolymerization with achiral acetylenic monomer following "sergeants and soldiers rule".

Anisotropic samples of lyotropic liquid crystalline (LLC) phases of valine derived polyaryl acetylenes were employed as chiral alignment media for the measurement of residual dipolar couplings (RDCs) of 12 small, chiral, organic molecules. The quadrupolar splitting of the deuterium signal of CDCl can be adjusted by temperature and concentration changes from 0 to 350 Hz. The LLC phases showed excellent orienting properties for all analytes bearing various functional groups.

Invited for this month's cover are the collaborating groups of Dr. Philippe Lesot (DR CNRS) at Université Paris-Sud/Université Paris-Saclay, France, and Professor Michael Reggelin at TU Darmstadt, Germany. The cover shows the proton-decoupled natural abundance deuterium (NAD-{ H}) Q-resolved Fz 2D-NMR spectrum of (±)-3-methylhexane measured in the anisotropic lyotropic chiral liquid-crystalline phase formed by a concentrated solution of a helically chiral polyarylacetylene in chloroform solvent.
