A new pair of 2,2'-diamino-1,1'-binaphthyl linked porphyrin dimers, ()-/()-, were synthesized to study their supramolecular interactions with a pair of chiral diamines (()-/()-PPDA) by using UV-Vis absorption, fluorescence and NMR titrations. The spectroscopic titrations indicated that sandwich-type 1:1 complexes were formed at low guest concentration and then transformed to 1:2 open complexes at high guest concentration. The supramolecular interactions afforded sensitive circular dichroism responses, and the CD signs of the 1:1 complexes are decided by the stereostructure of chiral diamine guests. Moreover, due to the shortened linking units, ()-/()- show more sensitive and predicable CD response than the previously reported hosts ()-/()- and this can be reasonably explained by DFT molecular modeling. The present results suggest ()-/()- are promising for chiral optical sensing.

Chiral amines and amino alcohols form an important category of molecules employed in the designing of new drugs and catalyst. Herein, we present a helically-twisted stereodynamic dialdehyde probe 1 for the determining of absolute configuration, and enantiomeric excess of chiral amine and amino alcohols. Probe 1 is based on the pyridine-2,6-dicarboxamide (PDC) core and undergoes rapid interconversion between the P- and M- conformers.

Here, we report the synthesis and self-assembly of a novel chiral 2,3:6,7‒naphthalenediimide-based triangular macrocycle (NDI-∆) and their chiroptical properties. The enantiomeric NDI-∆ is synthesized by condensation of (RR) or (SS)-trans-1,2-cyclohexanediamine and 2,3,6,7-naphthalenetetracarboxylic 2,3:6,7-dianhydride, in which the chirality of the macrocycles is controlled by the diamine. With the rigid outer π-surface, the macrocycle showed unique chiroptical properties and self-assembly modes.

Circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) film attracted considerable attention in information storage and encryption, three-dimensional display, and chiral recognition. However, due to the limited molecular mobility within thin film, achieving a high asymmetry factor and non-contact modulation of CPL remain challenging. In this work, color-switchable homochiral CPL films with high luminescence asymmetry factor (glum~0.

Electrically switchable second harmonic generation (SHG) is highly valuable in electro-optic modulators, which can be deployed in data communication and quantum optics. Coupling circular dichroism (CD) with an electrically controlled SHG process is advantageous because it enhances the signal transmission bandwidth and security while enabling multiple modulation modes for optical logic. However, ferroelectrically switchable chiral second-order nonlinearity is rarely reported.

In this work, we exploit the electronic features of tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) as a backbone in synthesizing chiral derivatives. The aim is to make use of TTF's well-known and unique redox and semiconducting properties in the fields of enantio-selective recognition and chiral charge transfer (CT) complex preparation, with the ultimate objective of obtaining devices with various potential applications, ranging from plasmonics to quantum computing. In particular, both cyclohexane-bis (TTF-amide)-based enantiomers 1-(S,S) and 1-(R,R), stable under an oxidation regime, have been selected, and under these conditions, the electrochemical enantiospecific response of the four possible systems, coming from the combination with L- and D-tartaric acid, respectively, was tested.
