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. Seventeen out of the twenty possible deuterium quadrupolar doublets are observed, demonstrating the enormous enantiodifferentiating capability of the system, even for an unfunctionalized chiral alkane.

In this work, the practical/analytical potential of an L-valine-derived polyacetylene (PLA) lyotropic liquid crystal (LLC) is examined to spectrally discriminate enantiomers (racemic mixture) or enantiotopic directions of a large collection (23) of (pro)chiral model compounds (from rigid to flexible and polar to apolar ones), thus covering various important aspects of enantiomorphism. Experimental H-{ H} (deuterated analytes and at natural abundance level) and C-{ H} NMR results are discussed in terms of the difference of H-RQCs or C-RCSAs and compared to those obtained in polypeptide-type LLCs (PBLG). The analysis of the NMR results provides an overview of the enantiodifferentiation capabilities of PLA and gives useful/practical hints for the chemist to select the most appropriate chiral oriented system.
